The ASX200 nudged up 0.4 % on Monday, keeping the market within striking distance of last week’s record. Financials powered the rise, with three of the big four banks near all‑time highs and energy and tech also in the green. Gold fell 1.3 % after a sharp profit‑taking rally, dragging miners down. Looking ahead, US‑China trade talks, the “Magnificent Seven” earnings and a key CPI release will drive sentiment, while markets price a 60 % chance of an RBA cut before the Melbourne Cup.
