It ended up being a decent start to the trading week for the All Ordinaries Index (ASX: XAO) on Monday. Over today's trading session, the All Ords ended up gaining a healthy 0.5%, putting it at the 7,210 point mark. But it was even better for a few All Ords shares.
So today, let's take a look at three such All Ords shares that managed to hit new 52-week highs.
3 All Ords shares at 52-week highs today
BWP Trust (ASX: BWP)
BWP is a real estate investment trust (REIT) that is well-known for owning commercial real estate assets, including several of the warehouses occupied by the Wesfarmers Ltd (ASX: WES)-owned Bunnings. This REIT had a rather strange session.
Yes, it initially rose upon market open to a new 52-week high of $4.35 a unit. But BWP quickly lost steam throughout the day and ended up closing at $4.24, down 0.93% for the day. Even so, the new high watermark still counts.
Austal Ltd (ASX: ASB)
Shipbuilder Austal is next up this Monday. Austal shares also had a strange day of trading today. The company, like BWP, was out of the gate like a bull this morning, quickly rising to $2.79 a share, its new 52-week high.
But investors appeared to get cold feet as well, and Austral shares spent the rest of the day falling away from this new high. The company ended up finishing at $2.64 a share, down 1.49%.
It was only last week that we were discussing another new 52-week high for Austral. So it's certainly been a great week for this company.
COG Financial Services Ltd (ASX: COG)
Third and finally, we have Cog Financial Services. Alone on this list, Cog actually finished in the green this Monday. The company closed at $1.87 a share this afternoon, up a pleasing 4.47%. However, that's not Cog's new 52-week high.
That came at market open when the company rocketed as high as $2 a share. That happens to be Cog's new high watermark. Cog shares are now up close to 20% since 21 July, when the company released a well-received trading update.
