标准普尔/澳交所200指数周三上涨0.3%，收于7800点以上，连续第五个交易日上涨，因为澳大利亚储备银行表示其鹰派立场不如市场预期。周二，央行将现金利率保持在4.35%不变，这是自去年11月上调以来的第四次稳定。尽管如此，澳大利亚储备银行承认，最近在降低通胀方面的进展已经停滞，并保持了“不排除任何因素”的前瞻性指导。联邦银行（0.5%）、CSL有限公司（0.7%）、Wesfarmers（0.3%）、Woodside Energy（0.3%）和Woolworths Group（0.9%）等指数权重股的涨幅显著。在企业新闻方面，澳新银行集团股价上涨1.5%，此前投资公司Jarden将其目标价格从28美元上调至29澳元。
The S&P/ASX 200 Index gained 0.3% to above 7,800 on Wednesday, rising for the fifth straight session as the Reserve Bank of Australia signaled a less hawkish stance than markets expected. On Tuesday, the central bank kept the cash rate unchanged at 4.35%, holding steady for the fourth time since last raising it in November. Still, the RBA acknowledged that the recent progress on bringing down inflation has stalled and maintained their forward guidance of “not ruling anything in or out.” Notable gains were seen from index heavyweights such as Commonwealth Bank (0.5%), CSL Ltd (0.7%), Wesfarmers (0.3%), Woodside Energy (0.3%) and Woolworths Group (0.9%). In corporate news, ANZ Group jumped 1.5% after investment firm Jarden raised its price target to A$29 from $28.
