April 18 (Reuters) - Australian shares were likely to
fall at the open on Tuesday, taking cues from a weaker session
on Wall Street ahead of corporate earnings reports, while
investors also await minutes from an Australian central bank
meeting.
The local share price index futures fell 0.2% a
5.5-points discount to the underlying S&P/ASX 200 index close. The benchmark rose 0.3% on Monday.
New Zealand's benchmark S&P/NZX 50 index fell 0.3%
to 11,895.32-points during early trade.
