Today, the S&P/ASX 200 Index (ASX: XJO) rallied off the back of a strong showing on Wall Street last night. On top of this, the Reserve Bank of Australia decided to keep interest rates on hold. At the end of the session, the benchmark index finished 0.49% higher at 7,006 points.

It was a good day for investors on Tuesday with nearly all sectors finishing in the green. However, the materials sector broke the trend with its 1.2% decline today. Fortunately, the ground was more than made up by other performing sectors such as tech and utilities.

However, the question is: which shares delivered the biggest returns to investors on the ASX today? Here are the top ten stocks that came through for investors:
