Miners weigh down market

The Australian share market finished the session lower on Monday, 13 April 2015, as losses in the iron-ore players after appalling Chinese trade data were more than offset by gains for healthcare, energy and gold miners. The benchmark S&P/ASX 200 Index declined 8.10 points, or 0.14%, to 5960.30, while the broader All Ordinaries Index fell 7.30 points, or 0.12%, to 5928.10. Market turnover was healthy, with 1.82 billion shares changing hands worth of A$3.47 billion.
