Westpac shares rebound after inflation cools — here’s what markets watch next

Sydney, Jan 8, 2026, 17:23 AEDT — Market closed Westpac Banking Corp shares (WBC.AX) last traded at A$38.01, up 1.3% on Thursday, paring losses from earlier in the week as investors weighed softer inflation against a still-wary central bank tone.
