	Description:		The local market fell for a sixth straight session, sliding 0.7% to a three-week low. This marks the longest losing streak for the index in nearly four years. Stalled peace talks pushed oil toward 110 USD - double its price since January. Monthly gains have now halved to 2.7% as the market braces for tomorrow's high-stakes inflation data. Energy stocks rose 1.2%, but the broader market was a "sea of red." Domino’s Pizza cratered 11% following a weak US update, while European Lithium skyrocketed 50% on a $1 billion takeover bid. All eyes are now on tomorrow's CPI print, with markets pricing in a likley chance of an RBA rate hike next week. Steve Daghlian and Laura Besarati are Market Analysts at CommSec. Each episode, they break down the day's market movements and explain what the numbers really mean.
