Morning Report 13 Apr 26: Markets rocky after no US-Iran deal reached

The local market snapped its three-day winning streak with a cautious 0.1% dip today, as investors braced for weekend US-Iran peace talks. Despite the minor pullback, the ASX rallied 4.4% across this holiday-shortened week leading to its strongest performance in over three years - recouping a massive portion of its March losses. Financials and Materials led the charge, while Energy slumped 5% as ceasefire hopes weighed on oil prices. Telix Pharmaceuticals soared 7% on positive FDA news, while Fortescue slipped 1.3%. All eyes now pivot to tonight’s US inflation data, with expectations of a tick higher to 3%, as well as US-Iran peace talks over the weekend.
