Profit reporting season
So far 128 of the ASX200 companies have reported full year results - all but 12 have produced a profit. Excluding BHP Billiton, aggregate profits are up 8.5%; 92% of companies paid a dividend and 85% lifted or maintained dividends. Aussie sharemarket has basically trended sideways through the reporting season. Overall: a solid result in disruptive times.
