What Mattered Today

The ASX staged a sharp intraday recovery, rallying ~85 points from its morning low to finish higher as technology, resources and property shares turned higher. The rebound followed early weakness as the market weighed the risk of higher interest rates against a busy week of Australian inflation data, US earnings and central bank decisions. Materials recovered some ground after last week’s selloff, while the major banks pared their early losses.

Question asked 24/10/2026

Wesfarmers (ASX: WES) Update please

HI MM Team of very insightful market commentaries (and a very friendly team to engage with). Re Wesfarmers (ASX: WES) has been on your Hit List for a while I note the overall market analysis rating WES is a Sell to Strong Sell the stock appears to have great recovery drivers and keen buyers at lower levels i.e. around $72-75. I am interested given your recent portfolio buy of JBH as to what is your current view on WES and comparison to JBH? Thanks Steve K
