<p>澳大利亞的股指基準在週三首次跌破心理關鍵的 8500 支撐位，這是自三月底以來的首次，因為伊朗戰爭引發的通脹擔憂讓投資者感到緊張。</p>
<p>基準的 S&amp;P/ASX 200 指數收盤下跌 1.3%，報 8496.60 點，為三月底以來的最低收盤，抹去了週二的 1.2% 的漲幅。該指數加入了全球拋售潮，投資者加大了對美聯儲可能需要在今年加息的押注，推動了債券收益率的上升。</p>
<p>投資者現在將關注週四的四月份就業數據，以獲取澳大利亞儲備銀行政策走向的線索。</p>
<p>KCM Trade 的首席市場分析師 Tim Waterer 表示：“緊張的就業市場是通脹壓力的來源，因此任何大幅超出預期的數據可能不會令澳儲行滿意，因為澳大利亞經濟面臨着現有的通脹挑戰。”</p>
<p>金融股下跌 1.1%，四大銀行股跌幅在 0.2% 至 2.4% 之間。</p>
<p>Waterer 補充道：“今年的 ‘三次快速加息’ 表明該行業正在為更緊的信貸條件做準備，抵消了對官方利率暫時見頂的任何樂觀情緒。”</p>

<p>澳大利亞的 S&P/ASX 200 指數收於 8,496.60 點，下跌 1.3%，創下自三月以來的最低收盤點位。與伊朗戰爭相關的通脹擔憂以及對美聯儲加息的預期導致了這一下跌。金融板塊下跌 1.1%，主要銀行股下滑，而礦業股下跌 2.2%。黃金股票觸及八週低點，James Hardie 的股價在令人失望的盈利預測後下跌 5.1%。投資者目前關注即將發佈的就業數據，以獲取澳大利亞儲備銀行政策方向的線索</p>
