The ASX200 has been up 0.83% at 8,354 points in early afternoon trade. The index hit a new intra-day record of 8384 points in morning trade, before paring gains on release of September jobs data.
The September unemployment rate came in at 4.1%, and is substantially lower than expected. This was on the back of more than 64,000 new jobs created last month, more than double market expectations.
The upshot is now less pressure on the RBA to cut rates. Markets have now priced in a 1 in 3 chance of a cut this year, down from a 50/50 chance before the jobs data release today.
The bourse immediately pared early gains following the release of the jobs data, but is still trading at near record levels.
