Across Markets…
This Afternoon, the Australian sharemarket snapped a seven day winning streak as profit guidance upgrades from CSL and James Hardie Industries were offset by weakness among the big bank and mining stocks.
The S&P/ASX200 Index fell 16.6 points, or 0.3 per cent, to 6179.2 points even as the technology sector notched up an eight-day winning streak as Afterpay, Xero and REA Group closed at record highs. The S&P/ASX All Technology Index gained 1.1 per cent.
The big banks were the main drag on the index. Commonwealth Bank fell 1 percent and Westpac lost 1.4 per cent after announcing it would shut operations in China, India and Indonesia.
BHP lost 0.8 per cent and Rio Tinto fell 1.3 per cent. Whitehaven Coal retreated 4 per cent.
CSL gained 1.4 per cent after raising the lower end of its full year profit guidance to growth of between 3 per cent and 8 per cent despite warning of higher plasma costs. The lower end of guidance had previously been zero per cent.

Global Energy Ventures (ASX: GEV) has revealed the development of a “world-first” compressed hydrogen ship to transport clean, renewable energy.
In an announcement today, it said patents are in process for the vessel and its innovative cargo system, which will include ambient temperature hydrogen at a target pressure of 3,600 pounds per square inch (psi) and have a storage capacity of up to 2,000 tonnes (or 23 million cubic metres) of compressed hydrogen.
Smaller capacity ships will also be evaluated for demonstration purposes based on specific pilot export projects.
Primarily focused on developing and operating marine vessels for compressed natural gas projects, the company is positioning as an early mover in the future of energy, leveraging its technical expertise to develop a new class of ship for customers demanding access to ‘zero-carbon’ energy.
