Australian Resource Stock Ramp-Up

The Australian stock market finished strong last night with the Uranium stocks leading the way.  It’s no wonder, since Uranium hit another new high of US$55.75.

At the close, the benchmark S&P/ASX200 Index was up 34.2 points at 5282.8 points, while the All Ordinaries gained 33.6 points to 5245.3.

Australia’s media king, News Corp. (NWS), rose 30 cents to AUS$28.55 while its non-voting shares gained 31 cents to AUS$27.37.  On the New York Stock Exchange, NWS rose more than a US$1 to an all-time high of US$21.26.  This stock is looking like a breakout.  I expect to see US$25 before the year is out.

But gold is down…

The spot price of gold was trading at $US571 an ounce by 4.32 p.m., down $US7.90 on yesterday’s close.  The most traded stock was goldminer Anglo Australian with 63.1 million shares changing hands, worth a collective AUS$5 million.
