Jamie Spiteri Sector Quotations

You have News Corp. weaker, you have the banking sector basically steady but with Australia & New Zealand Banking Group pulling back after some strong gains in recent weeks ...outside of that the market is just steady.

Origin has struggled to outperform the sector in comparison to some of the other energy stocks.

The bank sector is a bit weaker here, with NAB and CBA coming of their highs, and of course Westpac are ex-dividend, so that has obviously had an effect on the index,

The big falls are across the resources sector which is a bit of a wake up call for the market: that this part of the market is very susceptible to increased volatility at the moment.
