About the episode

US stocks were mixed while Treasuries fell after strong jobs data tempered expectations for near-term Fed rate cuts. Investor caution weighed on software names, although Generac bucked the trend, rising on optimism around data centre demand. In Europe, commodity strength helped lift shares to fresh record highs. In commodities, oil advanced as Middle East tensions outweighed a large build in US crude inventories, while gold rose 1% as buyers looked past the robust jobs report. Back home, Australian shares are expected to edge higher on Thursday, with the Aussie dollar hovering near a three-year high.
