David Llewellyn-Smith

Tuesday 21 May 2019

For once in its life the RBA sank the Aussie dollar today (after APRA lifted it):

Bonds are bid again:

XJO is in heaven:

Dalian firm:

Big miners taking a breather:

Big Gas too:

Big Gold liked the lower AUD:

Big Banks are afire:

But Big Realty is getting hit by tech:

The Plunge Protection Team is unleashed.
