Higher rates also push up borrowing costs. The Reserve Bank of Australia left its cash rate steady at 4.35% last week, after raising it three times by 25 basis points in 2026. The central bank said inflation was still too high.

Atlas Arteria (ASX:ALX) stock pinned at A$5.10 as IFM nears control threshold

IFM Crosses 50% Stake, Atlas Arteria Shares Reach Takeover Tipping Point

Atlas Arteria shares stayed at A$5.10, matching IFM’s takeover price, heading into Wednesday trading.

The bar now moves from IFM getting control of the votes to whether it can actually close out the deal.
