  • Australian Shares Slip Amid Market Pause Ahead of Key Economic Data
    January 18, 2026, 8:08 PM EST. Australian shares slipped with the S&P/ASX 200 down 0.2% to 8,886 on Monday, retreating from a recent two-month high. Investors paused after a strong rally ahead of crucial economic data, especially the unemployment rate expected to rise slightly. Oxford Economics Australia highlighted the economy's "awkward position," noting signs of re-accelerating inflation and uneven growth, suggesting the Reserve Bank will likely maintain a patient stance on policy changes. Major banks including Commonwealth Bank, Westpac, NAB, and ANZ Group fell between 0.5% and 0.7%, pulling the market lower. Conversely, gold stocks benefited from record bullion prices amid renewed global tariff concerns, with Newmont Corporation, Evolution Mining and Northern Star Resources gaining 1.8% to 2.1%. The market remains watchful for upcoming data to gauge the economic path.
