Australian shares rose for a second day after the Reserve Bank raised its benchmark rate by 50 basis points.
The RBA raised the cash rate target to 1.35 per cent, as most economists predicted. Today's increase was the third in three months, a cycle that last happened in 2010.
Gains in resource and tech stocks helped steer the $S&P/ASX 200(.XJO.AU)$ up 17 points or 0.25 per cent. Property trusts and industrials were the day's only significant drags.
Energy producers shone for a second day as a looming strike among oil workers in Norway and a production miss by the OPEC+ oil group lifted energy prices. $Woodside Energy Group Ltd(WDS.AU)$ gained 3.77 per cent. $Santos Ltd(STO.AU)$ firmed 0.4 per cent. $Beach Energy Ltd(BPT.AU)$ added 0.57 per cent.
Tech stocks were another pocket of strength as an early rally in bond yields faltered. $Life360 Inc(360.AU)$ jumped 11.34 per cent, $BrainChip Holdings Ltd(BRN.AU)$ 10.59 per cent and $WiseTech Global Ltd(WTC.AU)$ 5.17 per cent.

The biggest heavyweight drags were toll road operator $Transurban Group(TCL.AU)$ -1.04 per cent and industrial property giant $Goodman Group(GMG.AU)$ -0.96 per cent.
