Today, the S&P/ASX 200 Index (ASX: XJO) planted its third consecutive day of losses, albeit smaller than the previous two. At the end of the session, the benchmark index finished 0.16% lower at 7,304.7 points.

Despite some green returning to US shares last night, the Australian share market set its own pace today. Performances were mixed across sectors as investors try to establish where they should be positioned amid a potentially higher interest rate environment.

The real estate sector carried over its disappointing showing from yesterday into today's session, falling 1.5%. In contrast, energy and financial shares provided a supportive floor for the Aussie index on Wednesday.

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:
