The gold miners could receive more attention today after the gold price fell another 0.7% to US$1,216 an ounce. The Evolution Mining Ltd (ASX: EVN) share price, along with Regis Resources Limited (ASX: RRL), were among the hardest hit shares on the ASX 200 yesterday amid fears the gold price could have further to fall.
The iron ore miners, including BHP Billiton Limited (ASX: BHP) and Rio Tinto Limited (ASX: RIO) could also come under the spotlight. As reported by The Australian Financial Review, iron ore prices could fall sharply in the second-half of the year which would likely weigh on the share prices of those businesses.
Outside of the resources sector, the Telstra Corporation Ltd (ASX: TLS) share price may find some support after Bernstein increased its share price target from $4.70 to $5, according to Barrons.com. The telco's shares are hovering around a multi-year low price with dividend-hungry investors likely intrigued by its solid dividend yield.
Meanwhile, Freelancer Ltd (ASX: FLN) shares soared on Tuesday and could receive more attention from investors today, along with Nextdc Ltd (ASX: NXT) and Ardent Leisure Group (ASX: AAD).
