ASX 200 to kick off into ‘positive territory’ on Friday

CommSec’s Tom Piotrowski says the ASX 200 is expected to kick off in “positive territory” on Friday. “We're going to kick off in positive territory, the futures are telling us that we will be up by a third of a per cent,” Mr Piotrowski told Sky News Australia. “So this comes on the back of what’s been a pretty challenging week. "Obviously the higher than-expected inflation numbers mid-week have cast a pall over things.” Presented by CommSec.
