It was another fantastic day for the S&P/ASX 200 Index (ASX: XJO) this Tuesday, with the index hitting its latest new all-time high.
The ASX 200 added 0.56% by the close of today's session, leaving the index at 8,495.2 points. That, of course, comes after the index hit its new high watermark of 8,514.5 points during intra-day trading.
This explosive Tuesday for ASX shares follows a mixed start to the trading week over on Wall Street this morning.
The Dow Jones Industrial Average Index (DJX: .DJI) got off to a rocky start, dropping 0.29%.
However, the tech-heavy Nasdaq Composite Index (NASDAQ: .IXIC) made up for that with a confident 0.97% jump in value.
Let's return to the ASX now and take stock of what the different ASX sectors were doing today amid this optimism.
Despite the market's bullish outlook, a couple of sectors missed out on a gain today.
Most prominently amongst those were gold shares. The All Ordinaries Gold Index (ASX: XGD) was again shunned this session, tanking 0.89%.
Utilities stocks also suffered, with the S&P/ASX 200 Utilities Index (ASX: XUJ) diving 0.51%.
Mining shares were the other laggards today. The S&P/ASX 200 Materials Index (ASX: XMJ) slipped by 0.05%.
But it was all smiles everywhere else.
Leading today's winners were healthcare stocks, illustrated by the S&P/ASX 200 Healthcare Index (ASX: XHJ)'s 1.15% surge.
Consumer discretionary shares were on fire too. The S&P/ASX 200 Consumer Discretionary Index (ASX: XDJ) soared up 1.05% this Tuesday.
Industrial stocks joined the party, with the S&P/ASX 200 Industrials Index (ASX: XNJ) charging 0.92% higher.
As did ASX communications shares. The S&P/ASX 200 Communication Services Index (ASX: XTJ) galloped up 0.84%.
Consumer staples stocks counted themselves lucky as well, evident from the S&P/ASX 200 Consumer Staples Index (ASX: XSJ)'s 0.78% lift.
Financial shares also had a blast. The S&P/ASX 200 Financials Index (ASX: XFJ) banked a 0.62% rise.
Following financials, we had real estate investment trusts (REITs), with the S&P/ASX 200 A-REIT Index (ASX: XPJ) bouncing 0.48% higher.
Energy stocks fared well too. The S&P/ASX 200 Energy Index (ASX: XEJ) shot up 0.27% this session.
Finally, tech shares eked out a rise, as you'll see from the S&P/ASX 200 Information Technology Index (ASX: XIJ)'s 0.14% improvement.
Today's winner was IGA-owner Metcash Ltd (ASX: MTS). Metcash shares rose by a confident 752% and finished at $3.43 a share.
