The Aussie share market is set for a negative start to the week. The futures are hinting a 0.5% pull back, following all three US major indices closing lower.

 

Watch to watch today:

  • Given the increased restrictions in Melbourne and Sydney, Australia is likely to see economic activity fall in the September quarter by 1.4% from July to September.
  • Sydney’s new restrictions include a pause on all construction, with 250,000 construction workers told they cannot work. Additionally, non- essential retail stores are closed and Sydney’s public transport has been halved with timetables reverting to Sunday schedules.
  • As the construction industry takes a big hit, watch Boral (ASX:BLD), Brickworks (ASX:BKW), CSR Limited (ASX:CSR), and CIMIC (ASX:CIM) and Fletcher Building (ASX:FBU).
  • Energy stocks are expected to make strong rebounds this week, while banking will pull back.
  • Commonwealth Bank (ASX:CBA) are offering loan deferrals and Westpac (ASX:WBC) are offering interest free temporary overdrafts.
  • Brisbane may potentially host 2032 Olympics. The announcement will be made on Wednesday. This will be positive news for infrastructure, engineering, travel and tourism and hospitality stocks.
  • The iron ore price rose 0.5%, copper rose 2.4% and coal prices surged to almost $150.00 a ton, to their highest level in a decade.

 

Trading Ideas:

  • Citi has reiterated Afterpay (ASX:APT) as a HOLD with a $125.00 price target.
  • Neometals (ASX:NMT), archTIS (ASX:AR9) and Strike Resources (ASX:SRK) are all giving off bullish charting signals, according to Trading Central.
