US stocks broadly rallied at the end of last week, in which US$43.4 billion was spent buying global equities – the most so far this year. With investors' renewed confidence, the gold price dipped. And even Tesla jumped 15% from its low, but still remains outpaced by BYD's gains in 2025. Expect Australian stocks to be under pressure today.
