ASX Market Close: Index treads water | June 19, 2025

19 Jun 2025 16:45 (AEST)

The ASX 200 traded flat today, as the index keeps tracking sideways for a fourth straight day.

Financials, Real Estate, and Discretionary were substantially in the green, while on the other side Materials, Utilities, and IT stocks were smashed today.

In the Green

Amplia Therapeutics (ASX:ATX) spiked as investors responded with alacrity to the second confirmed complete response in its ACCENT trial. A complete response in an advanced pancreatic cancer is extremely rare.

Peak Minerals (ASX:PUA) raced higher as investors reacted positively to the company’s new Heavy Mineral (HM) results and rare earth element distribution results at its Minta Rutile Project in Cameroon.

Eclipse Metals’ (ASX: EPM) rare earth elements project in southwest Greenland continues to solidify its position as a strategically important and globally significant source of REE. Project metrics are supported by robust scientific data, including benchmarked mineralogical results.

In the Red

Traders sold off Legacy Minerals (ASX:LGM) on news it wrapped up its drilling program at its

Thomson Project in far north-west New South Wales.

KMD Brands (ASX:KMD) slipped on release of a trading update. The group’s FY25 YTD sales fell by -0.5% and investors reacted by selling down the stock.

And, Aurelia Metals (ASX:AMI) was punished by investors after releasing an underwhelming FY26 guidance and outlook for the next two years.
