The Australian market extended its green run into Thursday, closing the session 1.05% higher at 7250.80 points, driven by a surge in tech stocks as investors pile back into growth stocks following the US Federal Reserve announcing an interest rate rise to tackle inflation.
Aussie investors were also boosted by Australia’s unemployment data out today showing the rate of unemployment fell to 4% in February, its lowest level in 14 years, after 77,400 people found jobs during the month.
The stocks that made headlines today were:
