At midday on Friday, the Australian Securities Exchange (ASX) saw a mixed performance across its sectors. The consumer staples sector was the only one in the green, edging up by 0.2%. Meanwhile, the S&P/ASX 200 Index dropped below 8,000 points, marking its first decline below that level in nearly six months.
Live Verdure (LV1) saw a major corporate development, officially changing its name to Decidr AI Industries following shareholder approval on Wednesday. The Australian Securities and Investments Commission has processed the change, and the company’s ASX ticker will soon be updated to “DAI.”
On the downside, the real estate sector experienced the sharpest decline, falling 2.3%. US stocks also faced pressure on Thursday, despite President Donald Trump’s announcement of a one-month delay on tariffs for certain goods imported from Mexico and Canada.
In real estate news, Metrics Income Opportunities Trust (MOT) reported that the New South Wales Minister for Planning and Public Spaces has designated the mixed-use development application for a property located at 1 King Street, Concord West, as a state-significant development. This designation is under the relevant environmental planning and assessment laws.
