Market Close 03 Oct 25: Best week since early May for ASX

The Aussie share market finished the week strongly, up 0.5% on Friday and 2.3% across the week, marking its best weekly performance since early May. Tech stocks led gains with Live360 and Block, Inc. among the top performers, while energy lagged as oil prices slipped to four-month lows. Eagers Automotive surged nearly 18% after announcing a major Canadian acquisition, while DroneShield climbed 50% for the week. Dividend payouts from CSL, A2 Milk, Origin, Domino’s and others also put extra cash in investors’ pockets, while attention now turns to US earnings season, a New Zealand rate decision and uncertainty from the US government shutdown.
