On the contrary, Chorus Foreign Exempt NZX (ASX:CNU) reflected moderate softness, while Seek (ASX:SEK) and Car Group (ASX:CAR) exhibited limited upside movement during the period.

Temple & Webster Group (ASX:TPW) topped the discretionary list with notable momentum driven by business progress during FY25. JB HI-FI (ASX:JBH) and Eagers Automotive (ASX:APE) also contributed to positive sector sentiment.
On the reverse end, IDP Education (ASX:IEL) registered marked declines linked to changing regulatory landscapes. Web Travel Group (ASX:WEB) and Domino’s Pizza Enterprises (ASX:DMP) also saw reduced market traction within this ASX 200 category.
Staples Sector Development in the ASX 200
The consumer staples segment saw a varied performance across entities. Bega Cheese (ASX:BGA) initially gained interest on the back of a positive prior-year showing. Coles Group (ASX:COL), also a part of the All Ordinaries, continued to remain active with market-wide supply chain enhancements. The A2 Milk Company (ASX:A2M) also held up well in the segment.
Among the weaker names were Elders (ASX:ELD), Endeavour Group (ASX:EDV), and Treasury Wine Estates (ASX:TWE), with movement trending sideways or lower across FY25.

In contrast, Paladin Energy (ASX:PDN) experienced operational pressure. Whitehaven Coal (ASX:WHC) and Viva Energy Group (ASX:VEA) also tracked lower across the timeline, despite broader sector interest during late FY25.
Financial Sector Movement within the ASX 200
Select names within the financials sector gained notable visibility. Generation Development Group (ASX:GDG), Hub24 (ASX:HUB), and Zip Co Ltd (ASX:ZIP) led upward movements attributed to growth strategies.
Conversely, HMC Capital (ASX:HMC), which had maintained strength through FY24, trended lower due to broader portfolio influences. Other large-cap constituents remained relatively stable with balanced trading momentum during FY25.
