Market News
- Last night, S&P 500 touched a record high on the back of a recent pause in tariff escalation and a willingness to resume negotiation towards a trade deal between the U.S. and China. Dow Jones rose 117 points and Nasdaq Composite gained 84 points.
- U.S. stocks climbed on Monday, but finished off earlier highs, led by gains in technology stocks on optimism for progress in U.S.-China trade talks and signs of a likely reprieve for Chinese telecom company Huawei.
- Still, stocks had given up a good portion of their earlier gains as investors contemplated whether the Fed would be as dovish as has been anticipated recently and caution crept back in for what is likely to be a lightly traded week due to the July Fourth holiday.
Market Views
- Asian markets edged up in Tuesday, following overnight rally from Wall Street, after the two largest economies in the world agreed to resume talks to reconcile their trade differences. Nikkei was up 24 points while Hang Seng jumped 310 points after a holiday on Monday.
- Investors await Australian central bank’s rate decision which set to announce later today, with market expectations that interest rates will be cut as the monetary policy outlook for Australia is considered more dovish than the U.S.
