The S&P/ASX 200 Index is grappling to maintain its winning streak, closed 0.057% up at 7,519.2 points on 24 January 2024. However, the market is facing challenges due to the poor performance of several ASX shares.

Coronado's share price is down 1.19% to AU$1.66 apiece, influenced by a downgrade from Ord Minnett. Analysts have shifted the coal miner's rating to hold, accompanied by a trimmed price target of AU$1.80.
