The futures market says our shares will be up 1.4% or more than 70 points this morning, but I'd also keep a close eye on commodity stocks like Rio Tinto, Oz Minerals, BHP Billiton, Woodside, Santos and Newcrest because another poor night for commodities Friday night is going to be a telling factor.
