Wall Street drifts around its records following a worldwide rally

US stocks are drifting around their record levels on Wednesday after a rally spurred by hopes for lower US interest rates wrapped around the world. The S&P 500 rose 0.2 per cent, coming off its latest all-time high. The Dow Jones was up 412 points, or 0.9 per cent, while the Nasdaq composite rose 0.1 per cent after setting its own record the day before. The Australian sharemarket is set to jump, with futures at 4.57am AEST pointing to a rise of 33 points, or 0.4 per cent, at the open. The ASX shed 0.6 per cent on Wednesday. The Australian dollar was 0.2 per cent stronger to US65.41¢ at 5.11am. Reporting season continues, with Westpac and Suncorp among those due up on Thursday. Treasury yields eased in the bond market as expectations reached a virtual consensus that the Federal Reserve will cut its main interest rates for the first time this year at its next meeting in September. Lower rates can boost investment prices and the economy by making it cheaper for US households and businesses to borrow to buy houses, cars or equipment, though they risk worsening inflation. Stock indexes jumped in Asia in their first trading after Tuesday's better-than-expected report on US inflation triggered a jump in bets that a cut to interest rates is coming. Hong Kong's Hang Seng leaped 2.6 per cent, Japan's Nikkei 225 rallied 1.3 per cent and South Korea's Kospi climbed 1.1 per cent. Indexes also rose in Europe, though the moves were more modest after they already had the chance to trade on the US inflation data the afternoon before. Germany's DAX returned 0.7 per cent, and France's CAC 40 rose 0.7 per cent. Loading On Wall Street, the hopes for lower interest rates are helping to drown out criticism that the US stock market has grown too expensive after its big leap since hitting a low in April. One way companies can make their stock prices look less expensive is to deliver strong growth in profits, and Brinker International became the latest to report stronger results for the latest quarter than analysts expected. The company behind the Chili's brand said it saw more customers coming to its restaurants, and it's also making more profit off each $1 in sales.

ASX declines as CBA and AGL shares slump; Miners, Tyro advance

Welcome to your five-minute recap of the trading day. The numbers The Australian sharemarket declined on Wednesday, ignoring fresh records on Wall Street overnight after the rally in the nation's largest bank ran out of steam and shares of the biggest power generator slumped following both companies' results. The S&P/ASX 200 dropped 53.7 points, or 0.6 per cent, to 8817.10 points, led lower by financial stocks and utilities. The ASX had added 0.4 per cent in the previous session as the Reserve Bank cut interest rates. The Australian dollar was up 0.1 per cent at US65.35¢ at the time of the sharemarket close. The lifters The big mining companies all finished higher on the back of a rise in iron price overnight. BHP gained 1.1 per cent, Fortescue Metals rose 1.4 per cent and Rio Tinto added 1 per cent. Meanwhile, gold miner Evolution climbed 3.9 per cent, having jumped as much as 7 per cent during the session, after saying its profit for the year to June 30 more than doubled to $926 million amid rising bullion prices. Fellow gold miner Northern Star Resources gained 1.1 per cent. Penfolds maker Treasury Wine Estates rose 1.2 per cent after revealing a 15.5 per cent lift in underlying profits to $470.6 million, having sold more than $2.9 billion worth of wine over the past financial year. The result was helped by Asian demand for its luxury red wine, and price increases. Tyro Payments jumped 11.5 per cent after telling investors it had received unsolicited and non-binding takeover bids from separate suitors, although so far none of them had been at a level that it considered 'representative of Tyro's intrinsic value'.
