Utilities and tech shares dragged the S&P/ASX 200 0.3 per cent down on Monday at the lowest closing level in two months.
Real estate was the only sector posting gains.
The four major banks were mixed and so were mining companies. Gold miners Newcrest Mining and Westgold Resources shot up between 1.7 per cent and 3.2 per cent. Lithium producers Pilbara Minerals jumped 3.5 per cent, Mineral Resources advanced 2.4 per cent and Allkem added 1.8 per cent.
But the heavyweight giants gave back earlier gains despite a firmer tone in iron ore prices. Rio Tinto dipped 0.1 per cent, BHP Group slipped 0.7 per cent and Fortescue Metals fell 1 per cent.
ANZ economists now expect the Federal Reserve’s tightening cycle to extend well into the first half of 2023, and peak between 4.75 per cent and 5 per cent by the second quarter of next year.
