AU Market Watch
Australian shares declined on Monday as investors anticipate a potential acceleration in inflation, which could lead the Reserve Bank of Australia to consider raising the country's cash rate. This move would be in contrast to other central banks that are currently easing monetary policy. During the opening bell, the benchmark $S&P/ASX 200 (.XJO.AU)$ dropped by 0.2 per cent, or 15.1 points to 7783.3, with healthcare and energy stocks witnessing significant losses.
Healthcare shares were the poorest performers, declining by 1.8 per cent. This was due to $ResMed Inc (RMD.AU)$'s 11 per cent fall after the weekend's release of a weight loss drug, which raised concerns regarding increased competition. $Cochlear Ltd (COH.AU)$ fell by 1.2 per cent, while $CSL Ltd (CSL.AU)$ slipped by 0.5 per cent.
The consumer price index indicator is due to be released on Wednesday, indicating an increase in the pace of annual inflation to 3.8 per cent in May from 3.6 per cent in April.
