Across Markets…

The sharemarket rebounded on Thursday, tracking a Wall Street-inspired relief rally after softer US jobs data soothed worries, at least for now, about high interest rates.

Eight out of the 11 sectors on the ASX 200 ended in the black, with real estate and tech leading gains.

The major banks rallied between 0.2 per cent and 0.9 per cent, rebounding from yesterday’s sell-off.

Shares in gold miners jumped, boosted by stronger prices of the precious metal as bond yields and the US dollar stepped back from highs.

Resources stocks, however, capped the index’s gains following a brutal sell-off in crude prices overnight.

The Nasdaq jumped 1.4 per cent after US private payrolls missed expectations – rising 89,000 last month following a gain of 180,000 in August.

Energy was the biggest laggard, down 0.9 per cent, even as oil prices steadied following a spectacular 5 per cent drop in crude on Wednesday. Santos declined 0.4 per cent to $7.42, Woodside Energy fell 0.8 per cent to $34.31 and Whitehaven Coal dropped 1.3 per cent to $6.75.

The dark mood spread to the country’s mining heavyweights. BHP Group was down 0.7 per cent to $43.43 and Rio Tinto dropped 1.5 per cent to $111.91.

Further undermining their appeal were weakening iron ore prices. In Singapore, the benchmark November iron ore futures contract slid down just 0.1 per cent to $US115.3 a tonne.
