Did you know?
Australia is one of the world's largest exporters of iron ore, coal, gold and liquefied natural gas — making its equity market highly sensitive to global commodity cycles and Chinese industrial demand. The Australian Securities Exchange is unusual among developed markets in being heavily weighted toward financials and materials, giving it a very different sector profile from the technology-heavy US and European markets. Australia also has one of the world's largest superannuation (pension) systems relative to GDP, making domestic institutional investors significant owners of Australian equities.
