 How Australian Markets Performed On September 19, 2019? Overview Of Key Updates

Australian markets ended the session in green, as S&P/ASX200 closed at 6717.5, reflecting an increase of 35.9 points or 0.5% on an intraday basis. Also, on the same day, All Ordinaries registered a rise of 34 points or 0.5% on an intraday basis to close at 6825.2. As the market players are aware, Australian markets are affected by the overall health of the global economy as well as by news related to the trade war between the US and China. A permanent settlement of the war can positively impact the broader performance of the Australian economy, which in turn, could have a favourable impact on Australian equities. The settlement of the war can prompt Australian investors to make deployments towards stocks. Therefore, it can be said that, to bring stability, the trade war needs to end.
