About the episode
The Aussie share market has posted modest gains for a second consecutive session, with most sectors advancing as investors await key US Federal Reserve interest rate decision and Australian jobs data. Energy stocks rebounded strongly, while tech shares remain under pressure despite today's gains. The market's recovery comes after hitting three-month lows earlier this week amid escalating Middle East tensions and rising oil prices. Steve Daghlian and Laura Besarati are Market Analysts at CommSec. Each episode, they break down the day's market movements and explain what the numbers really mean.
