Morning, and welcome to Stockhead’s Top 10 (at 11… ish), highlighting the movers and shakers on the ASX in early-doors trading.
With the market opening at 10am sharp eastern time, the data is taken at 10.15am in the east, once trading kicks off in earnest.
In brief, this is what the market has been up to this morning.
The ASX has opened on a perhaps surprisingly strong footing this Halloween Friday, fending off the spooky vibes from Wall Street where the bears drew some blood overnight.
By mid-morning, the ASX 200 was up about 0.5%, as local traders held off the global fright fest sparked by the somewhat gloomy, fence-sitting Fedspeak, as well as the Trump-Xi talks.
In the US, the S&P 500 slid 1%, the tech-heavy Nasdaq was carved down 1.6%, and the Dow shed 0.2%.
Bitcoin … is it dead yet? Nah. A few flesh wounds maybe, but still kicking along at about US$107k while the Aussie dollar’s also looking okay around US65.5¢.
