OVERSEAS TRADING
SYDNEY The boomlot was not sustained on the Sydney Stock Exchange yesterday: the market opened on a weak note and moved gradually downwards throughout most of the morning. However, a strong rally occurred in the afternoon and most stocks recovered well, although it was only in the industrials that rises outnumbered falls at the close: Despite the lack of strength in the sector as a whole, there were good Individual gains in the miners. Hamersley put on another 50 to 1300. Market leader B.H.P. recovered particularly well from weak early trading to close 15 higher at 1605.
