  • Australia Shares Climb 1.6% on April Opening Amid Global and Domestic Developments
    March 31, 2026, 11:29 PM EDT. Australian shares rose 133 points or 1.6% to 8,615 in early April trade, extending gains following Wall Street's surge. Market sentiment improved on Iranian President Pezeshkian's signals toward ending the war, and U.S. plans to wind down operations near the Strait of Hormuz. Domestic data showed a strong February rebound in building permits, driven by private-sector dwellings excluding houses. Most ASX 200 sectors advanced, led by non-energy minerals and logistics. Top gainers included Northern Star Resources (6.8%) and Sandfire Resources (6.2%). However, cautious sentiment capped gains ahead of trade data this week, following a January dip in exports and rise in imports.
