Thanks @shovel40, @Fiji1, @Patterns and morning crew.
Half-time wrap:
A rebound in oil and fresh 2023 highs on Wall Street helped the share market edge to its highest level since mid-September.
The ASX 200 advanced 10 points or 0.14% by mid-session to 7205. The index has not closed above 7200 since September 18.
Brent crude's first gain in six sessions helped lift the energy sector 1%. Also strong were industrials +0.5%, consumer discretionary +0.46% and healthcare +0.44%. Utilities and miners were among the drags on the index.
This morning's rally followed a positive end to last week on Wall Street, where both the S&P 500 and Nasdaq set new highs for the year. The S&P 500 rallied 0.41% as traders found the positives in jobs data that sharpened hopes for a soft landing for the economy while denting the prospect of rate cuts as soon as March.
Personal trading: Went through the motions, but only got one hit and that was a part-fill so tiny it barely earned enough to buy a Coke.
