	Description:		The Aussie market capped a volatile week with a modest gain, as record-breaking gold prices and a tech surge offset weakness in the banking sector. Gold miners remained the standout story, with Evolution, Westgold, and Genesis hitting all-time highs as the precious metal tracked toward its strongest weekly gain since 2020. However, the day’s top performer was Life360, which skyrocketed 27% after hiking profit targets following record user growth. Guzman y Gomez also climbed 4% on an exclusive delivery deal with Uber. Looking ahead, a holiday-shortened week looms with the market closed Monday, followed by a high-stakes local inflation update and earnings from US giants Apple and Microsoft.
