The ASX 200 surged 120 points, or 1.4%, to end at 8,844 on Friday, snapping back from a muted prior session to an over one-week peak. Sentiment improved as stronger U.S. stock futures offset Wall Street’s mixed lead Thursday ahead of the Independence Day holiday. Traders also shrugged off the Reserve Bank’s tightening concerns, focusing instead on easing Middle East tensions and the reopening of the Strait of Hormuz, as well as an upward revision in domestic private-sector activity in June. Gains spread across most sectors, led by consumer durables, healthcare, non-energy minerals, and process industries. Gold stocks jumped 7.9% after bullion rallied on softer U.S. payrolls, with Northern Star jumping 10.6% and Evolution Mining up 8.6%. Heavyweights BHP rose 1.6% and Computershare 3.0%, while the big four banks added 0.4%–2.4%. In contrast, Suncorp slumped 4.1% after trimming its growth outlook on weaker demand. For the week, the benchmark rose 0.9%, erasing prior losses.
