Looking for the best performing stocks in Australia? We update this guide every month with the 10 top performing stocks on the Australian Securities Exchange (ASX) over the prior month. We also show performance data for the last 1-year and 5-year periods.

How did we get this list?

We scan the performance data of all ASX-listed stocks to find the 10 best performing each month. Only stocks with market capitalisations of more than $500 million are included, ensuring we don't include highly volatile penny stocks.

Remember, past performance is no guarantee of future success. A stock performing strongly this month might decline in the future. Always do careful research and look at your own individual investment strategy to decide which stock is right for you.

Important: The standard brokerage fee displayed is the trade cost for new customers to purchase $1,000 of either Australian or US shares. Where a platform charges different fees for both US and Australian shares we show the lower of the two. Where both CHESS sponsored and custodian shares are offered, we display the cheapest option.
