Half-time wrap:
A rebound in resource stocks helped the share market overcome a soft start following Wall Street's worst three-day run since March.
The ASX 200 flipped a 22-point opening loss into a mid-session gain of 16 points or 0.23%. Fortescue Metals, BHP and South32 led a mining fightback after recoveries in iron ore and industrial metals. Industrial property giant Goodman Group surged for a second day after a trading update yesterday.
The early weakness followed a third straight losing night on Wall Street, where the S&P 500 dropped 0.77% to extend its three-day retreat to 2.7%. The decline came as US government bond yields tested levels last seen in the run-up to the GFC.Personal trading: Had the unfortunate habit this morning of being at the right price level but not getting filled - looking at you NHE, CPV, C1X. Got one tiddler on the go, but it's tucked up in bed and snoring loudly...
