Key sectors include Industrials (4 highs, 4 lows), Materials (2 highs, 2 lows), and Discretionary (0 highs, 8 lows). Despite pockets of strength in energy and infrastructure, overall market health remains weak, with 27 stocks reaching yearly lows. Retail stocks, particularly discretionary, are struggling, highlighted by Webjet's significant drop after disappointing results. Brambles also faced a major selloff due to lowered revenue guidance." datetime: "2026-05-25T00:55:43.000Z" locales: - [zh-CN](https://longbridge.com/zh-CN/news/287478218.md) - [en](https://longbridge.com/en/news/287478218.md) - [zh-HK](https://longbridge.com/zh-HK/news/287478218.md) --- # ASX 200 stocks hitting fresh 52-week highs and lows – Week 22 Welcome back to the 52-Week Series, where we recap the S&P/ASX 200 stocks that have hit fresh yearly highs and lows over the past week. Tracking this data point helps identify emerging trends across various stocks and sectors. When clusters of stocks within a sector reach new highs or lows, it often points to meaningful underlying drivers such as shifting commodity prices, changing demand patterns (such as AI, pivots into defensive sectors, consumer weakness etc), or companies beating/missing earnings expectations. 52-Week highs and lows by sector - Industrials: 4 Highs, 4 Lows - Materials: 2 Highs, 2 Lows - Telecommunications: 2 Highs, 2 Lows - Energy: 2 Highs, 0 Lows - Financials: 2 Highs, 1 Low - Utilities: 1 High, 0 Lows - Discretionary: 0 Highs, 8 Lows - Staples: 0 Highs, 4 Lows - Health Care: 0 Highs, 3 Lows - Real Estate: 0 Highs, 2 Lows - Technology: 0 Highs, 1 Low What Does the Data Tell Us? - Pockets of strength: The ASX 200 hit an eight-week low last week and continues to trade 6-8% off its 2 March record high. Despite ongoing volatility, a few pockets of strength persist, largely concentrated in Iran-war beneficiaries (energy and refiners), rising-yield beneficiaries (insurers and infrastructure), industrials still seeing strong contracting and deal-making activity, and high-profile defensives such as Telstra and APA Group. - Breadth remains poor: Market health remains weak beneath the surface, with 27 stocks making fresh yearly lows, unchanged from last week and up from 22 two weeks ago. - Retail stocks struggle: Discretionary is a notable area of softness. Last week's data included a 3.5% bounce in the Westpac–Melbourne Institute Consumer Sentiment Index off extremely pessimistic levels. Meanwhile, Webjet (not Web Travel Group) sold off 11% last Wednesday to fresh record lows after its FY26 results missed expectations, with OTA bookings and TTV at 17 May 2027 down 12% and 15% respectively year-on-year. - Industrials take a hit: Brambles suffered a historic 20.2% one-day selloff after downgrading its FY26 revenue growth guidance to 2-3% (from 3-4%) and underlying profit guidance to 3-5% (from 8-11%). Management cited repair capacity constraints that have limited its ability to fully service higher-than-expected demand. - The trend is your friend: Strongly trending sectors backed by fundamental tailwinds continue to buck the broader weakness, while stocks and sectors that have lagged (weighed down by recent retail earnings downgrades, an ongoing mass exodus from healthcare valuations, and softness in packaging segment etc.) keep trending lower.
