Market Close 05 Mar 26: ASX rebounds after back-to-back declines

The Australian share market rebounded on Thursday, recovering roughly half of the previous session's losses as investors shrugged off geopolitical tensions and bought back into oversold stocks. Technology led the gains with a strong four percent rise, while energy stocks recovered despite earlier weakness. The positive lead came from Wall Street, where major US indices rose on signs of economic resilience. Investors are now looking ahead to US jobs data and monitoring ongoing developments in the Middle East. Steve Daghlian and Laura Besarati are Market Analysts at CommSec.
