Australian Stock Market

This list contains 1950 ticker symbols. These are ticker symbols of stocks that trade in the Australian stock market.
The Australian securities exchange, or the ASX, is the main stock exchange in Australia. It is based in Sydney and it was formed in 1987. The Australian securities exchange has became the ninth largest stock exchange in the world after a merger in December 2006 between the Australian stock exchange and the Sidney futures exchange. The exchange is a publicly traded company; it is listed on the exchange itself and it offers a fully electronic trading.

The All Ordinaries index used to be the major index of the Australian securities exchange. Today, the main index on the ASX is the S&P/ASX 200, which includes the 200 biggest companies listed on the ASX. Rio Tinto, BHP Billiton, Telstra Corporation, National Australia Bank and Commonwealth Bank of Australia are among these companies.
