It was a historic day on Wall Street as the Trump administration paused reciprocal tariffs with several key trading partners, sparking a broad market rally. All sectors of the S&P 500 closed higher, led by strong gains in information technology, while the NASDAQ logged its second-biggest gain on record. Investor speculation is building that the Federal Reserve may step in if the bond sell-off intensifies, adding further fuel to market optimism. Commodities surged on the news, with oil jumping 4% and gold soaring 3% to hit fresh record highs. Looking ahead, Aussie shares are expected to rally sharply, with futures pointing to a 6% surge at the open.
