$4613.00 over the last three trading days Aussie stocks down as US rejects bailout The Australian stock market closed down 4.3 per cent, losing about $55 billion in value, as investors fled most sectors after the US Congress voted down a $US700 billion ($A879.78 billion) bailout package for US financial firms Stock markets in the region fell sharply after US lawmakers unexpectedly rejected a $US700 billion ($860 billion) bailout plan for the financial markets The US House of Representatives voted down the package overnight, sending Wall Street into a panic and driving the Dow Jones Industrial Average down a record 777.68 points - or 6.98% - wiping approximately $US1.2 trillion off the market value Although it's the first-ever trillion-dollar one-day loss, it does not make the top 10 greatest percentage losses On "Black Monday", October 19 1987, the Dow dropped by 22.61% But the decline here was not as bad as expected, with the major indices recovering some early losses after the Federal Government reassured Australians the nation could weather the financial storm in the US Heightened expectations that the Australian central bank could to cut official interest rates by half a percentage point next week to support the economy also prevented the market from mirroring a near seven per cent decline in the US market overnight The benchmark S&P/ASX200 closed 206.9 points, or 4.3 per cent lower at 4,600.5, while the broader All Ordinaries fell 207.9 points, or 4.3 per cent, to 4,631.3 It is the biggest one-day fall since January 22 this year, when the S&P/ASX200 index lost 7.05 per cent and the All Ordinaries fell 7.26 per cent CommSec chief equities economist Craig James said the Australian market, as with others in Asia, had held up pretty well "We're seeing some big declines in our banks but nowhere near that seen for financial stocks around the world" Mr James said "Our banks are much more solid" All of the major banks closed weaker Westpac was down 7.21 per cent, or $1.67, to $21.48, its takeover target St George Bank had nosedived $2.10, or 6.84 per cent, to $28.60, National Australia Bank had shed $1.43, or 5.57 per cent, to $24.26 and ANZ Bank was relatively unscathed, down four cents to $18.75 The nation's largest lender, Commonwealth Bank, was down $1.25, or 2.85 per cent at $42.62 Mining giant BHP Billiton had dropped $3.24, or a massive 9.46 per cent, to $31.00, while its takeover target Rio Tinto had lost $11.00, or 11.52 per cent, to $84.50 The spot gold was trading in Sydney at $US904.60 an ounce, up $US31.20 on Monday's close of $US873.40 Local gold stocks were mixed Newcrest was down 41 cents, or 1.46 per cent, to $27.63, Newmont had inched two cents lower to $4.90 and Lihir Gold had added 10 cents, or 3.7 per cent, to $2.80 Preliminary market turnover was 1.33 billion shares, valued at $5.9 billion, with 227 stocks up, 963 down and 239 unchanged * The fall in the market Tuesday pushed the major indices down to the worst levels since December 2005 The S&P/ASX200 reached its lowest level since December 13, 2005, and the all ords hit its lowest since December 20, 2005 In the US on Monday night, Wall Street endured its worst day one-day points fall since September 11, 2001 after the House of Representatives Washington policymakers narrowly rejected the $US700 billion bailout package proposed by the US government ABN Amro Morgans director of equities Bill Chatterton said it was possible the massive bailout could be passed later this week, with a Jewish holiday in the US on Tuesday giving the US House of Representatives time to contemplate the ramifications of again shooting down the rescue plan * The S&P/ASX 200 Index closed 206.9 points, or 4.3%, lower at 4600.5, its lowest finish in nearly three years At the opening, the index dropped by as much as 5.6%, wiping more than $60 billion in value off the market Today's losses mean the benchmark index has shed 10.4% this month, its highest monthly drop since January when it fell 10.9% The index also finished the quarter deep in the red, with a drop of 11.8%, extending its stretch of loss-making quarters to four |

$8545.46 over the last six trading days Australia shares end down 3.3 percent - near three year low Australian shares dropped 3.3 percent on Monday to a near three-year low, weighed down by mining and bank stocks, as investors fretted about global growth prospects amid the ongoing credit crunch The U.S. House of Representatives finally passed a $700 billion financial bailout on Friday, but it failed to lift sentiment on Wall Street, giving a negative lead for Australian stocks "Now the focus is off the bailout package and the focus is well and truly on the dire state of the U.S. economy" said Rory Luff, associate director at hedge fund MM&E Capital Australia's benchmark S&P/ASX 200 index .AXJO ended down 155 points at 4,540.4, its lowest close since November 2005 while the broader All Ordinaries index had shed 158.1 points, or 3.36 per cent, to 4,544.7 The losses were felt across the board following a weak lead from Wall Street on Friday amid fears that the US government's financial rescue plan may not unblock credit markets to stave off recession Among Australia's top commercial banks, National Australia Bank Ltd, with the biggest U.S. exposure, had been the weakest for most of the day - it ended down 2.3 percent at $25.55 By the end of trade, Australia and New Zealand Banking Group Ltd was the worst off, down 3.5 percent at $18.05 Commonwealth Bank was down $1.01, or 2.24 per cent, to $44.00 and Westpac had dropped 71 cents, or 3.06 per cent, to $22.50 and its takeover target St George Bank had slid 84 cents, or 2.79 per cent, to $29.30 Investment bank Macquarie Group shed 10.5 percent to $35.00 The prospect of weaker metals demand knocked the miners from top to bottom BHP Billiton retreated 63 cents, or 2.07 per cent, to $29.79 while its takeover target Rio Tinto had fallen $4.43, or 4.98 per cent, to $84.48, widening the discount on its shares to the value of BHP's hostile takeover offer to 17 percent Gold stocks were mixed, and spot gold was trading in Sydney at $US831.15 an ounce, down $US9.70 on yesterday's close of $US840.85 an ounce AngloGold Ashanti was a rare bright spot on the market, advancing 19 cents, or 3.06 per cent, to $6.39 Newcrest was down $1.15, or 4.17 per cent, at $26.44, Newmont was steady at $4.54 and Papua New Guinea-focused Lihir Gold had lost 12 cents, or 4.56 per cent, at $2.51 Preliminary market turnover was 643.05 million shares, valued at $2.24 billion, with 208 stocks up, 813 down and 259 unchanged |
