The Australian share market fell for a third consecutive session, breaking below the key 9000 point level for the first time since late July. Stronger than expected economic growth data ramped up expectations for an RBA rate hike in September, while escalating Middle East tensions and a US bond market sell-off added pressure. Materials and gold stocks led declines, though energy remained the year's top performer.
