"the COB: rock solid results It was a big day on the earnings front led by BHP which smashed expectations as revenue climbed 11% to around US$28 billion. Investors cheered the result sending shares to a record intraday high before closing up 5.1% to $52.92. The strength spilled over into the broader market with the S&P/ASX200 gaining 0.24% across the session. However the rally wasnt universal across materials. Evolution Mining failed to ride the wave sliding 1.8% whilst Rio Tinto had a late afternoon recovery rising 0.2%. In financials Judo Capital delivered a strong first-half performance"
