The overall return from the S&P/ASX 200 Accumulation Index for November was negative 2.7% as stronger than expected economic data

and higher inflation figures sent bond yields higher. This data has dampened expectations of further rate cuts in Australia, at least in the

short term.

The Banking sector following on from very strong returns over the past 12 months fell 7.0%. Information Technology was also down

significantly over the month with a fall of 11.6%. The other major decline was in Real Estate, down 3.9%, as the more immediate interest

rate outlook weighed on the sector.

Small and mid-cap resources continued their strength from the previous month driven by strong gains in rare earth and critical minerals

stocks. Gold was also strong during the month up nearly 10% over the period. Gains were modest across other sectors during the month,

with Health Care up 2.0%, after many months of underperformance. Consumer Staples was up 1.6% over the month.
