Selling has continued for a second consecutive day with the ASX 200 firmly in the red, but finishing off its lows for the day. The index fell 51.5 points or 0.83% to 6181.3. The losses over the last two sessions have wiped out the gains over the first three days as the index finished the week flat.
Today's losses come despite the majority of US indices lifting on trade optimism. There were reports from Chinese news source, Xinhua that Vice Premier Liu He said a new consensus had been reached on the text of an economic and trade agreement. While the two nations are much closer to a deal, intellectual property and theft along with certain tariffs remain sticking points.
Every sector ended the day in negative territory today. The tech sector saw the largest fall in percentage terms followed by consumer staples and property trusts but financials and healthcare were the main weight and contributed most to broader losses.
Over the course of the week, materials were the most improved with miners supported by iron ore prices. The tech sector was another advancer along with consumer staples and discretionaries. Real Estate and utilities were the major underperformers for the week.
In company news, Automotive Holdings (AHG) has surged 20.7% after receiving a takeover offer from AP Eagers (APE), with an offer of 1 APE share for every 3.8 AHG shares. Both stocks rallied on the news with APE also lifting 5.6%.
Afterpay Touch (APT) was one of the biggest gainers today with a 3.8% lift, Domain Holdings (DHG) climbed 3.7% and Eclipx (ECX) rose 1.8%. Among the worst performers were Bravura Solutions (BVS) which fell 4.8%, Appen (APX) was down 4.1% and Webjet (WEB) declined 3.6%.
