The Aussie share market managed to close 0.4% higher yesterday, with the market now up a modest 2% for November. Most sectors closed higher, except for the Energy, Materials and Utilities sectors. 

Mesoblast (ASX:MSB) blasted its way to the top of the leaderboard, closing nearly 12% higher after the release of an update on a phase three trial for the therapy’s use in treating chronic heart failure. While, Whitehaven Coal (ASX:WHC) was one of the worst performers, following an international agreement to reduce coal use.

In the US, stocks closed flat to start the new trading week ahead of quarterly results from big US retailers, which will give a further idea about the US economic recovery and inflation pressures. 

After a flat session on Wall Street, the futures are suggesting the Aussie share market will open 0.39% lower this morning.
