The local market also tracked the rally on Wall Street overnight, where the Nasdaq hit an all time high. Gains today were led by the mining sector after Treasurer Jim Chalmers announced a $7b production tax credit for the critical minerals industry. This could see 10% of operating costs for downstream processing in critical minerals like nickel, vanadium, lithium and rare earths returned to miners as a tax credit.Read more here: Mission Critical: Albanese and Chalmers’ budget delivers $7bn splash for critical minerals refinersBHP (ASX:BHP) shares also lifted the sector, up 2.5% after its target Anglo American announced a plan to sell its assets to fend off current and future bids from BHP.Neuren Pharma (ASX:NEU) rose by +5% after releasing an Investor Presentation pack. IDP Education (ASX:IEL) meanwhile was up +7% after disclosing that Goldman Sachs has increased its stake in the company by about 1%. And this was the state of play on the ASX near the close of Wednesday:Source: MarketIndexApart from Mining, Healthcare came good today after getting some love from the Budget.The consumer and property sectors are also likely to benefit from the Budget, which includes a $7.8 billion cost-of-living package. Both sectors rose today. Meanwhile, the Australian Bureau of Spreadsheets (ABS) has released the latest Wage Price Index figures, showing the WPI for the March quarter has risen 0.8%, the littlest quarterly bump since December 2022.Breaking the numbers down, on an annual basis, it’s the Healthcare and social assistance sector that has enjoyed the largest increase at 5.3%, most likely thanks in no small part to the Fair Work Commission’s ruling earlier in the year.China’s bold moveIt’s a bit quieter than usual in Asia today as Hong Kong is closed for holidays. Overnight, China’s tech giant Tencent jumped 1% after the company reported higher-than-expected revenue. But Alibaba’s shares on NYSE fell -6% due to a significant drop in profits, showing the widening gap between China’s top two internet giants. China meanwhile is looking into a plan for local governments to purchase millions of unsold homes. If executed, this would be one of the country’s boldest efforts to rescue its struggling property market.To tonight’s session, market sentiment on Wall Street will be really focused on the US CPI report.Experts say that even if inflation came in at a 3-year year low, we’d need a bigger downside surprise to ease concerns about persistent inflation.ASX SMALL CAP LEADERSToday’s best performing small cap stocks:Swipe or scroll to reveal full table.
