The Australian share market has finished higher for a fifth-straight day, even as traders digested a better-than-expected domestic jobs report some economists say could delay interest rate cuts.
The benchmark S&P/ASX200 index finished 14.8 points higher on Thursday at 7,865.5 , a gain of 0.19 per cent, while the broader All Ordinaries rose 13.6 points, or 0.17 per cent, to 8,083.8.
