Australia stock market today: ASX 200 slips as banks slide, BlueScope jumps on $9 bln bid ahead of CPI

Sydney, January 6, 2026, 21:55 AEDT — Market closed Australian shares fell on Tuesday, with the S&P/ASX 200 closing down 0.5% at 8,682.8, as big banks dragged the benchmark despite strength in miners and a takeover-fuelled jump in BlueScope Steel. Financials slid 1.8%, with Commonwealth Bank of Australia down 3% and the other major lenders off about 2% to 2.4%. Markets are now focused on Wednesday’s inflation data, with traders pricing roughly a 33% chance of a February rate hike; “If the market starts pricing in rate increases, the ASX is likely to see more differentiated performance across sectors rather than a broad rally,” said Marc Jocum, senior product and investment strategist at Global X ETFs Australia.

IEX share price jumps 13% after tribunal remarks on market coupling — what investors are watching

Shares of Indian Energy Exchange jumped as much as 13% on Tuesday after an electricity tribunal hearing on market-coupling rules that could reshape how power prices are set on exchanges. The Appellate Tribunal for Electricity questioned the process behind the rules, and IEX said the coupling order should be scrapped even without the securities regulator’s insider-trading findings, Moneycontrol reported, citing CNBC-TV18. The case matters now because “market coupling” would pool buy and sell bids across exchanges to publish a single market-clearing price, narrowing the advantage of the dominant venue in attracting liquidity. For IEX, the shift goes to the heart of its business model: being the main platform where power prices are discovered.
