The ASX publishes announcements from every stock listed on the exchange. These announcements, in PDF format, are available via a live feed from the ASX on the HSBC Online Share Trading website.
Announcements on the Quotes & News page
Announcements with the dollar symbol indicate the content relates to market-sensitive information.
Not only can you customise your news feeds in the areas mentioned above, you can also customise the Watchscreen section of the Market Wrap overview page.
This is a very handy feature because it means you only see the information that relates to you and your interests. This is called ‘contextual information’, meaning it’s information that’s relevant to you.
On the market overview page (choose 'Quotes & news' from the top menu), you’llsee your watchscreens at the bottom of the page. The watchscreens can be for orders, your portfolio or your watchscreens (ie stocks you want to keep an eye on).
Each time you choose one of those tabs, you’ll notice that the updates on the far right show all the company announcements and business news items that are relevant to the chosen watchlist.
Contextual information for your watchscreens
You can also customise your watchlists to show only the columns you want to see. Just choose the Customise button and then select the relevant column.
Customise your watchscreen columns
Choose ‘Market overview’ from the ‘Quotes & news’ menu on the top left of the screen. You’ll see the different tabs for News – Business News/RSS Feeds/Announcements in the middle left of the page.
Every time to look up a quote, you’ll see news and announcements in the top right of the page.
News and announcements on the Quotes & news page
