ASX tech May winners: Silicon surge sends Aussie tech sector skyward by 22pc
Don't miss out on the headlines from Stockhead. Followed categories will be added to My News. ASX tech rockets 22pc in May
Earnings from tech's 'Magnificent 7' helped matters
Elsight, Eroad, Etherstack and Yojee were notable gainers
The ASX tech sector didn't just rally in May, it rocketed.
Up more than 22%, it was one of the biggest monthly leaps in recent memory, outpacing every other sector on the index and riding a wave of global tailwinds that swept through Wall Street and into Martin Place. May performance by sector
So what lit the rocket under Aussie tech?
Well, a combo of softening US-China trade tensions, a rate cut by the RBA, and red-hot earnings from the global tech elite – all wrapped in a volatile month where every diplomatic handshake or tariff tweet sent markets bouncing. Wall Street turns silicon slick
Over in the US, it was an AI-fuelled tech fest.
The Nasdaq jumped 9.5% in May, its best showing since November last year. The S&P 500 had a solid 6.15% lift, and the Dow chipped in with a 4% gain.
The key driver was de-escalation.
Starting May 14, Washington slashed tariffs on Chinese goods from 145% to 30%. Beijing responded by trimming its own to 10%.
Also, earnings from the 'Magnificent Seven' – Microsoft, Nvidia, Apple, Alphabet, Amazon, Meta, and Tesla – blew past expectations.
According to FactSet, their collective Q1 earnings grew 27.7%, smashing estimates and fuelling confidence in AI, cloud, and consumer spending.
But the mood wasn't all champagne and confetti.
Trump reignited tariff threats by month's end, accusing China of dragging its feet on export compliance, especially around rare earths.
The backpedalling stirred new worries, but not enough to undo the market's momentum.
Confidence is back, at least for now. And when global investors are feeling bold, ASX tech stocks often get caught in the updraft.

Making news for the right reasons or just hitting milestones, here were some of the month's notable gainers…
Elsight (ASX:ELS)
Elsight's share price ripped higher in May after it secured a second major contract from a European defence drone maker, worth US$5.35m on top of an earlier US$4.28m deal announced in April.
That brings the customer's total commitment to US$9.63m, with all units set for delivery this year.
Elsight's Halo tech is being embedded into defence drone programs, and more than US$1m of the April order has already been delivered and booked as revenue.
On top of that, Elsight was selected by Northrop Grumman for a prestigious US defence accelerator, just 8 companies chosen from over 225 applicants.
That program gives it direct access to Northrop's tech and procurement teams, and a fast-track to potential US DoD contracts.
Eroad (ASX:ERD)
Transport tech firm Eroad surged after delivering a strong FY25 result and setting upbeat guidance for the year ahead.
It flipped to a profit, pulled in NZ$16m in free cash flow (a huge jump from NZ$1.3m last year), and saw revenue climb to NZ$194.4m, up nearly 7%.
Annual recurring revenue (ARR) also rose to NZ$175.1m.
But it was the outlook that really got investors paying attention.
Eroad is guiding to FY26 revenue of at least NZ$205m, and ARR of at least NZ$188m, with free cash flow yield of 8–10%.
It's also targeting medium-term ARR growth of 11–13%.
Etherstack (ASX:ESK)
Radio tech firm Etherstack popped in May after locking in a record US$7m in cash receipts for the first half of FY25, its strongest half-year since listing.
Most of that came from project revenue already delivered, and it reckons H1 revenue alone could beat all of last year's full result.
It's also flagged more big deals likely coming soon from long-term clients, and its recurring revenue from support and 'comms-as-a-service' is steadily growing.
All up, investors saw strong cash, solid outlook, and momentum.
Yojee (ASX:YOJ)
Logistics tech minnow Yojee surged in May off the back of two big catalysts.
First, it presented at the IFCBAA national freight conference, putting its next-gen freight forwarding software in front of key industry players.
Second, WiseTech's massive $2.1bn acquisition of E2open lit a fire under the whole sector, showing just how hot logistics tech is right now.
Now read: WiseTech's $2bn power play, and one small logistics tech stock stirring interest
Yojee's building its own momentum too, with an AI assistant baked into its platform, and a pilot deal with global player Röhlig Logistics kicking off in Singapore.
All up, investors saw a small-cap riding a big wave, and jumped on board.

Gold Digger: Riches rain for gold miners, but value is in the eye of the beholder
Gold miners have been out and about for reporting season Market reactions are heavily dependent on investor expectations, even with the sector printing serious cash Newmont ran hard on Friday after a stellar June quarter Market reactions during reporting period are often a gauge of feelings as much as facts and figures. What's important is not necessarily the number that's reported, but how it correlates to the mood and expectations of the investors punting on a stock. Fortescue's (ASX:FMG) quarterly this week, for instance, was well received because of its record iron ore output and falling costs. But a decision to halt two green energy projects and reduce spending on the troubled division was as much a signal for investors worried about cash burn and dividends to buy in as any of the hard numbers. For the gold scene, the cash generation has been predictably strong. Northern Star Resources (ASX:NST), for instance, reported record underlying free cash flow of $536 million for FY25 on Thursday, after selling 1.634Moz at an all in sustaining cost of $2163/oz. It has a whopping $1.914bn cash on the balance sheet with net cash of $1.013bn after its deal to acquire De Grey Mining, which brought a cash pile with it alongside its world-class Hemi gold project. Cash earnings are expected to clock in at $2.8-2.95bn, with Northern Star also winding down hedging commitments to reflect its balance sheet strength. Yet, NST shares have shed close to 5% over the past week and over 18% in the last month. Despite gold prices climbing 28% YTD, NST shares have barely budged. Dilution from the DEG deal is one thing, but there are also concerns that future earnings will be chewed up by increased capex, especially around its critical Kalgoorlie hub and Super Pit gold mine. Citi downgraded its price target this week from $18 to $21 and reduced EBITDA estimates going forward between 3-7%. Analysts are also questioning the timeliness of numbers on a project to expand the KCGM business and processing plant. MD Stuart Tonkin admitted on an earnings call the operating cost of $1425/oz could be old given the run up in gold prices since the decision was taken. But he maintains it will still be one of the top cash spinners globally. "That $1425 (an ounce) is perhaps a stale number, albeit this asset will be a top 5 global gold mine, and it will be setting inside the third lowest quartile global cost curve, and that's been the investment case," Tonkin said. "So relative it will generate as much cash flow as anything globally." Some more takeaways Capricorn Metals (ASX:CMM) is yet to give its final numbers for the June quarter. But its shares have been in limbo as investors digest some relatively noteworthy M&A activity from the mid-tier gold miner. CMM announced the $189m scheme deal to acquire Warriedar Resources (ASX:WA8). There'll be some dilution – the 1 for 62 share offer will see WA8 shareholders own ~4.36% of the company, equivalent to 15.5c per WA8 share and a 29% premium over Warriedar's July 23 closing price. It's a potential satellite development for CMM's Mt Gibson project, the next cab off the rank for the miner beyond its operating Karlawinda mine, with Warriedar's Golden Range containing a resource of 1.38Moz of gold and 60,000t of antimony. Capricorn has shed over 3% on Friday and more than 4% in the past five days. Pantoro (ASX:PNR) has been a big winner, declaring ~$196m of EBITDA for FY25 including $80.4m for the fourth quarter alone. With a cash build of ~$43m, the more than 25,000oz delivered by the Norseman gold mine came in at the upper half of guidance. PNR set guidance of 100-110,000oz at AISC of $1950-2250/oz. Its shares crumbled 5% on Friday amid a sector wide gold and mining sell off. But they were still ~22% higher on the week, propelling the miner's valuation to almost $1.5bn. At the very big end of the spectrum, Newmont Corporation (ASX:NEM) broke the mould with a 3.8% lift after nearly doubling net income for the three months to June 30 YoY to US$1.595bn. The world's largest gold producer by volume, NEM announced a US25c cash dividend for the quarter after selling 1.38Moz of gold at an average price of US$3320/oz and gold equivalent cost of US$1203/oz when copper, silver, lead and zinc by-products are taken into account. NEM finished the quarter with some US$6.2bn in consolidated cash, US$10.2bn in total liqudity and net debt of US$1.4bn Canaccord's Carey MacRury said free cash generation of US$1.71bn and all in sustaining cost margins of US$1738/oz clocked in well above the broker's US$1538/oz estimate, representing a lift of 34% QoQ and doubling over the past year. "Overall, the quarter highlights improving operating performance, with three solid quarters in a row and tracking well to achieve its 2025 guidance," MacRury said. "Newmont remains one of our Best Ideas among the senior producers with improving production, strong FCF, capital return program, and attractive valuation."

Trump puts world 'on notice' to lift beef bans
US President Donald Trump has issued a scorching demand for any global bans on US beef to be lifted, following the relaxation of importation rules in Australia. In a post on his social media platform Truth Social, Mr Trump said 'After many years Australia has agreed to accept American Beef'. 'For a long time, and even though we are great friends, they actually banned our Beef.' He insisted that the US would now sell 'so much to Australia'. 'This is undeniable and irrefutable Proof that U.S. Beef is the Safest and Best in the entire World. 'The other Countries that refuse our magnificent Beef are ON NOTICE. 'All of our Nation's Ranchers, who are some of the hardest working and most wonderful people, are smiling today, which means I am smiling too. He ended the post with a call to 'keep the Hot Streak going'. It comes after the Albanese government's decision to lift restrictions on US beef imports, which came after a lengthy science-based review. The relaxation of the rules has however faced criticism from the Coalition for its 'exquisite' timing as Labor enters trade negotiations with the US. The Trump Administration claimed credit for the change in a Department of Agriculture press release titled 'Make Agriculture Great Again Trade Wins: President Trump Secures Greater Ag Market Access to Australia for American Beef'. The US Secretary of Agriculture Brooke Rollins said the change removed 'non-scientific trade barriers'. 'Gone are the days of putting American farmers on the sidelines,' Ms Rollins said. 'This is yet another example of the kind of market access the President negotiates to bring America into a new golden age of prosperity, with American agriculture leading the way.' The change was also praised by US Trade Representative Jamieson Greer in a statement on Thursday that singled out US President Donald Trump's 'leadership' for the change. 'Yesterday's decision by Australia marks a major milestone in lowering trade barriers and securing market access for US farmers and ranchers,' he said. 'President Trump is taking decisive action to confront unfair trading practices, and Australia's decision to unlock market access for US beef is a direct result of his leadership.' US beef was first banned in Australia in 2003 following an outbreak of mad cow disease. It was a total ban until 2019, when it was lifted, albeit restrictions remained on US exports that originated in Canada or Mexico. Australia had maintained the ban under the banner of biosecurity, but Agriculture Minister Julie Collins said that the Department of Agriculture, Fisheries and Forestry was 'satisfied' with the 'strengthened control measures' put in place by the US. Local Australian beef producers have said the expect the new import rules to have minimal effect, citing high demand in the US and Australian's preference for homegrown meat. 'The potential for US beef to be imported into Australia in large volumes is minimal, given the high demand for beef in the US, the low US cattle herd, the strength of the Australian dollar, our competitive domestic supply, and most importantly Australians' strong preference for high-quality, tasty and nutritious Australian beef,' Meat and Livestock Australia said in a statement.

ASX falls for third straight session on banks and miners
A slump in the price of iron ore and Australians dumping their bank stocks saw the local market slide for the third straight trading day. The benchmark ASX200 dropped 42.5 points or 0.49 per cent to 8,666.9 points on Friday while the broader All Ordinaries lost 45.10 points or 0.50 per cent to close the week at 8,934.30. Australia's dollar also fell and at the time of writing was buying 65.76 US cents. The falls were broad based with seven of the 11 sectors ending the day in the red, led by the materials, financials and healthcare sector. BHP shares fell 1.92 per cent to $40.80, Fortescue shares dropped 3.42 per cent of $18.35 and Rio Tinto traded down 0.83 per cent to $118.86 on the back of a falling iron ore price. Singapore iron ore futures slumped 1.7 per cent to $103.35. The drop follows investors fear of an oversupply of the commodity. The big four banks continued their sell-off with CBA down 0.35 per cent to $172.87, NAB down 0.40 per cent to $37.51, Westpac slumping 0.78 per cent to $33.03 and ANZ down 0.72 per cent to $30.22. Market heavyweight CSL also fell 0.61 per cent to $267.92, while Sigma Healthcare lost 0.70 per cent to $2.84 and Cochlear slid 0.38 per cent to $312.83. AMP chief economist and head of investment strategy Shane Oliver said the Australian market fell during the week even though Wall Street continued to reset record highs. 'Resources and health stocks rose but this was more than offset by falls in consumer and financial shares, with CBA coming under after it nearly doubled in price over two years,' he said. Dr Oliver said the Australian sharemarket was still on track for a solid July up 1.4 per cent so far although the gains could be short lived. 'With lots of good news already factored in and valuations stretched, markets are a bit vulnerable to a correction over the seasonally weaker months of August and September with a long worry list,' he said. Shares in anti-drone technology business DroneShield slumped 10.09 per cent to $3.03. This was on the back of no announcement and could be investors taking profit after the shares surged more than 300 per cent so far this year. Bapcor shares gained 1.64 per cent to $3.72 following after tanking nearly 30 per cent to a five-year low on Thursday on the back of its latest earnings forecast. The Autobarn and Midas owner said statutory net profits after tax would lie between $31m-$34m. Specialist alternative investment manager Regal Partners surged 9.02 per cent to $2.90 after announcing a 7 per cent increase in funds under management to $17.7bn. Shares in Newmont also shined, gaining 3.81 per cent to $95.38 after the US gold miner announced a 9 per cent rise in net income for the second quarter and a $4.6bn share buyback program.
