ASX Preview: Australian Shares Set to Open Higher After Wall Street Rally; Trump Inauguration, Earnings Season in Focus

MT Newswires Live

Jan 20, 2025

Australian shares are expected to open higher Monday as investors track Wall Street's rally last Friday ahead of US President-elect Donald Trump's inauguration and as the Aussie earnings season begins.

US benchmark equity indexes rose last Jan. 17, with the S&P 500 climbing 1%, the Nasdaq Composite advancing 1.5%, and the Dow Jones Industrial Average rising 0.8%.

Trump's inauguration is dominating global headlines this week, with investors all eyes on how the new administration's policies will impact the market.

In corporate news, Djerriwarrh Investments (ASX:DJW) reported earnings of AU$0.0814 for the half-year period ended Dec. 31, 2024, compared with earnings of AU$0.049 a year ago.

Elsewhere, Rio Tinto Group (ASX:RIO) intends to form a lithium unit once its acquisition of Arcadium Lithium (ASX:LTM) is completed, Reuters reported on Jan. 17, citing an internal memo.

South32 (ASX:S32) produced 2.5 million tones of alumina in the first half of fiscal 2025, down 2% from the year-earlier period, according to a Monday filing with the Australian bourse.

Australia's benchmark index was little changed at 8,310.40 on Jan. 17.
