Australian share market ended higher for the first time in seven consecutive sessions after recouping intraday losses on Thursday, 18 September 2014. The gain was propelled by late hour bargain buying after the US Federal Reserve stuck to a plan to begin raising near-zero interest rates only in 2015. The benchmark S&P/ASX 200 Index advanced by 8.50 points, or 0.16%, to 5415.80 and the broader All Ordinaries Index rose by 7.60 points, or 0.14%, to 5419. Turnover was relatively stronger with 2.2 billion shares worth of A$5.39 billion traded today.
