Zamtel’s Ericsson 5G Push Puts Zambia’s Business Connectivity Race in Play

Zamtel has signed a memorandum of understanding, a preliminary agreement, with Ericsson to support private 4G and 5G networks in Zambia, moving the state-linked operator deeper into business connectivity as local rivals push faster mobile services. The agreement was formalised during a visit by an Ericsson delegation led by Alain Maupin, its head of Eastern and Northern Africa. The timing matters because Zambia’s telecoms market is no longer just about selling more SIM cards. Active mobile subscriptions rose 9.9% to 23 million in 2024, PwC Zambia said, while Airtel Networks, MTN Zambia and Zamtel have all launched or started rolling out 5G services.

Xero Stock Faces a Tuesday Test After ASX Holiday and a Wild Tech Rebound

Xero’s shares head into a holiday-shortened week with Friday’s price still the live reference point: A$79.27, down 1.41% on the session, yet up 5.45% over seven days. The stock remains bruised, down about 58% over 12 months. That matters now because the ASX cash market — the exchange market for ordinary shares — is closed Monday for the King’s Birthday holiday, with no settlement on the day. Trading in Xero and the broader market resumes with investors digesting last week’s swing in technology stocks and a weak Friday index close.

Brambles Stock Traders Eye Buyback But Focus Shifts to Tuesday

Brambles Limited heads into a short week as the Australian Securities Exchange skips Monday for the King’s Birthday holiday, with no settlement trading for June 8. ASX activity resumes after the break, pricing in Friday’s buy-back news and a softer global equity lead. Brambles shares are still feeling the impact from a May guidance cut.

Technology One Shares Up 8% Over the Week, Eyes on Tuesday’s Open

Technology One Limited finished the week up 8.3% even as shares slipped in the last two sessions. The ASX-listed software company dipped 0.12% to A$32.33 on Friday. Cash trading is closed Monday in Australia for the King’s Birthday holiday, with no settlement scheduled on the ASX. This comes as the holiday stops trading in the stock right after a fast bounce in local tech names. When the market opens on Tuesday, it will be clear if last week’s gains were just a move in the sector or if buyers are coming back to the TechnologyOne recurring-revenue growth story.

ASX Shut Monday for Holiday, Eyes Turn to Coming Week

ASX trading is closed Monday for the King’s Birthday holiday, so Australian shares will start the week on a delay, with attention turning to Tuesday when cash trading picks up and the market has to react to a heavy Wall Street drop. The S&P/ASX 200, the main local index, fell last week as banks and miners slipped. The calendar sets the tone as local investors start a four-day trading week. Global rate jitters are back in play, iron ore is slipping, and the Reserve Bank of Australia keeps saying inflation hasn’t cooled enough.

Pro Medicus jumps 25% in quick rebound but ASX index to test strength after new U.S. deals

Pro Medicus Ltd saw a strong rebound this week but now faces an index shakeup after S&P Dow Jones Indices decided to cut the medical-imaging software company from the S&P/ASX 50 later this month. The ASX is closed Monday for the King’s Birthday holiday, so traders will have to wait until the next session to react to the late-Friday announcement. That’s now front of mind since shares took off. Pro Medicus ended Friday at A$165.64, a gain of 4.03% on the day and about 25% higher than last week’s finish at A$132.26, according to Tiger Brokers market data.

Mineral Resources stock drops into ASX break as lithium rally heads for another test

MinRes faces selling when the ASX opens Tuesday, after closing at A$67.57 on Friday and falling 5.09%. That compared to a 0.70% drop in the S&P/ASX 200. The ASX cash market is shut Monday for the King’s Birthday, so action in MinRes is paused until trade resumes. This leaves the move squarely in last week’s trading and sets up for next week, with no intraday action Monday. Lithium moves, balance-sheet clean-up and a Mt Marion call all landed in Mineral Resources’ quarter, as the sector sold off hard. Investors head into a long weekend with debt and cash flow now in focus for the trade.

Coles Group Shares Rose Ahead of ASX Holiday Pause, Tuesday in Focus

Coles Group finished Friday at A$22.21, up 1.9%, ahead of the King’s Birthday holiday. The ASX cash market is closed Monday for the public holiday, so no settlement will occur until trading starts again. Grocery stocks face pressure from both steady demand and squeezed household budgets. Australia’s GDP rose just 0.3% in the March quarter, signaling weak growth in the economy. Moody’s Analytics’ Sunny Nguyen told Reuters “the headline was soft.” Stephen Smith, a partner at Deloitte Access Economics, said the “quality of growth has deteriorated.”

Why Transurban Shares Face a Tuesday Test After the ASX Holiday

Transurban Group Ltd enters the new week in a holding pattern, with its stock last shown at A$15.08 and Australian share trading shut Monday for the King’s Birthday holiday. The next price test comes Tuesday. That matters now because the broader market went into the break on a weak note. The S&P/ASX 200, Australia’s main benchmark of large listed stocks, fell 0.7% to 8,625.10 on Friday, June 5, as banks and miners dragged the index lower.

Fortescue Stock’s Long-Weekend Problem: Iron Ore Is Slipping, China Talks Are Tightening

Fortescue Ltd heads into an ASX holiday pause after a bruising week, with its shares last quoted at A$20.53, down 2.33% on Friday and almost 8% below their close seven days earlier. The move left FMG sitting near the low end of Friday’s trading range, after opening at A$20.82 and touching A$20.32. The timing matters. The Australian Securities Exchange’s cash market is closed on Monday for the King’s Birthday holiday, so investors will not get a fresh local price until Tuesday, after another stretch of offshore iron ore trading and any China demand signals.

Telstra Loses Key Backstop Ahead of ASX Open

Telstra Group shares were weak going into Australia’s extended market holiday after finishing a A$1.25 billion buyback. The stock fell as the wider Australian market also lost ground ahead of the break. ASX won’t open Monday due to the King’s Birthday holiday, so investors will have to wait until Tuesday to see if Telstra bounces back from last week’s drop. The ASX’s cash-market calendar for 2026 shows Monday, June 8, as a holiday — no trading, settlement, or business day.
