The Aussie market continued its downward trend, with the ASX 200 dropping 0.8%, hitting its lowest level since late December. This decline comes as the Trump administration imposed steep tariffs on Canada, Mexico, and China, prompting retaliatory measures. While most sectors struggled, tech, utilities, and property trusts showed slight gains, and gold stocks provided a bright spot as investors sought safe havens. Tomorrow is set to be a critical day for ex-dividend trading, with major stocks like BHP, Rio Tinto, South32, and Woodside in focus.
