Closing Bell 27th August: Woodside jumps after earnings and higher energy prices. XJO lower as rally stalls
The S&P/ASX 200 traded cautiously midday Tuesday, down 4.2 points to 8080.3, as investors weighed mixed Wall Street cues and profit results from major Australian companies against rising Middle East tensions. The index, less than 60 points from its peak of 8148.7 earlier this month, saw seven of its 11 sectors decline, led by tech, while energy outperformed.
