Market Close 29 Aug 25: ASX200 hits 10 record highs in August

It has been a quiet end to the week and month for the Aussie market fresh off a barrage of record highs throughout August.  Steve breaks down the mostly flat session that marks the end of the Aussie reporting season, and reflects on the month with tariffs, earnings results, and trade discussions all impacting market moves.  Locally the sectors saw mixed performance with tech and energy seeing gains, and healthcare and banking seeing some declines.  Steve looks at the winners and losers with Austal and Harvey Norman gaining attention, and he looks to the week ahead with a flood of economic data expected.
