Rising fertiliser prices to boost Aguia as it commences phosphate production
The major influence on the markets last week was the Iranian/USA War. Last Monday the Australian market was wondering what to think about it, but the downward movements in the overseas markets on Monday night led the way down such that the fall in the All Ords for the week was 3.7%.
