Australian share market closed higher for the first time in five sessions in row on Wednesday, 07 September 2016, as gains in bullion, consumer discretionary, and consumer staples, and materials stocks were more than offset by selling of energy shares as crude-oil prices wobbled ahead of key U.S. inventory data. At close of trade, the benchmark S&P/ASX 200 index was up 10.60 points, or 0.2%, to 5,424.20, while the broader All Ordinaries index has gained 10.70 points, or 0.19%, to 5,521.10.
