The Australian sharemarket was flat in the early afternoon after optimism about commodities demand offset a retreat in health and tech stocks. The S&P/ASX 200 Index was flat at 8285.5 points on Monday after slipping 0.1 per cent last week as the rally in the so-called Trump trades lost steam and traders pared back US Federal Reserve interest rate cut bets.

South32 powered up 5.6 per cent. Meanwhile, gold stocks surged, mirroring a bounce in bullion prices as the US dollar rally hit a wall. Bellevue and Evolution leapt more than 3 per cent.
