Ending the year on a high note, the S&P/ASX 200 Index (ASX: XJO) rallied on the last trading day of 2022. The benchmark index climbed 0.26% to 7,038.7 points, following in the footsteps of the US stock market last night.
Nearly all sectors of the Australian share market were walking with a spring in their step on Friday. All except for one, the real estate sector — slipping slightly lower with broad weakness among popular property names.
The most significant move inside the top 200 came from Link Administration Holdings Ltd (ASX: LNK), taking a woeful 40% tumble. Although, the move was due to the company’s shares trading ex-distribution of its holding in the online conveyancing platform PEXA Group Ltd (ASX: PXA).

It’s been an underwhelming year for the BrainChip Holdings Ltd (ASX: BRN) share price, but that didn’t stop the chip developer’s shares from taking off today. Despite the rather sizeable 12% move, there didn’t appear to be any information to explain the move.
Meanwhile, it was a sea of green for ASX lithium shares on Friday. Several lithium names made it into the top 10 following news in the United States that leased electric vehicles will also qualify for the US$7,500 in tax credits.
