ASX 200 closes at 8,749.90

The S&P/ASX 200 closed at 8,749.90, up 8.70 points or 0.10% from Friday’s 8,741.20 close. The benchmark opened at 8,741.20, exactly equal to the previous close. Its calculated opening gap was therefore 0.00 points or 0.00%—neither a gap-up nor a gap-down.

All Ordinaries closes at 8,923.90

The broader All Ordinaries closed at 8,923.90, up 3.70 points or 0.04% from the previous 8,920.20 close. It also opened at 8,920.20, producing a calculated opening gap of 0.00 points or 0.00%.

How the close was verified

The final levels were checked after the closing auction against the Google Finance pages for XJO and XAO and a delayed TradingView index snapshot. ASX states that normal trading ends at 16:00 Sydney time and the closing single-price auction, when ASX Trade calculates closing prices, runs from approximately 16:10 to 16:11.

What the result means

Both broad benchmarks ended close to Friday’s levels. The modest positive closes followed flat openings, showing that neither index began Monday with a measurable opening gap.
