The S&P/ASX 200 Real Estate Index (ASX: XRE) led the way on Monday, gaining 1.95%, itself led by GPT Group (ASX: GPT) following the company’s half-year earnings.

Meanwhile, the S&P/ASX 200 Energy Index (ASX: XEJ) recorded the biggest fall, slumping 0.8%. It was weighed down by the Beach Energy Ltd (ASX: BPT) share price after the company released its financial year 2022 earnings amid lower oil prices.
