（单词翻译）

 The Australian sharemarket has posted its biggest weekly gain in more than two years. The All Ordinaries index added 0.9 percent, as did the ASX 200 index. Across the region, investors1 have focused on some stable Chinese inflation figures for January. Even so, Japan's Nikkei is down close to two percent and HongKong's Hang seng is edging up. 

 
The Australian dollar has regained2 most of the ground it lost against the greenback after the worst-than-expected employment figures were released yesterday. It's buying 89.89 U.S.cents.
 
Profits have tumbled for Newcrest Mining because of big tax bills and writedowns on its assets in west Africa. The gold miner made 40 million dollars in the six months to the end of December, but that't down 88 percent compared with the same time a year before. Newcrest says the lower gold price also dragged on the result despite higher sales in the period. As expected, shareholders3 won't get a divident.
 
Shares in Newcrest not surprisingly flipped4 on that result. They lost 1.8 percent by the close. Investors also took their first chance to react to Rio Tinto's profit turnaround. David Jones was down a third of a percent. ANZ the best of the big four banks. And Qantas continue to rise today.
