Australia Market dips for second day; Miners plunge

Australian equity market finished session down for second straight session on Thursday, 14 September 2017, dragged down by materials and resources stocks after China, the country's biggest trade partner, reported weaker than expected factory data for August, and as metal prices extended losses. However, better-than-expected jobs growth helped to limit losses. The benchmark S&P/ASX200 finished the day down 5.6 points, or 0.1%, at 5,738.7 points.
