🔴 Wesfarmers is trading 4.35% down today after JB Hi-Fi's weak future guidance

Wesfarmers is trading 4.35% down at A$84.84 after a broad Australian retail-sector sell-off following JB Hi-Fi’s weak future guidance.

• Consumer discretionary stocks fell 2.5%, with JB Hi-Fi plunging 12.3% and dragging Wesfarmers and Harvey Norman lower.
• No clear company-specific announcement was identified for August 18, 2026.
• Wesfarmers’ next scheduled catalyst is its FY2026 results on August 27; sector-wide consumer-spending concerns remain the most likely explanation.
