Morning Report 11 Oct 24: Wall Street dips slightly after higher-than-expected inflation and unemployment data

Aussie stocks rebounded today with the ASX200 up by roughly a third of a percent, nearing a record high, despite some midday fading. Mining and energy sectors led the charge, fuelled by hopes for Chinese stimulus and Rio Tinto's $10 billion acquisition of Arcadium Lithium, its biggest deal in 17 years. Lithium miners surged, with Arcadium's shares up 39% and optimism spreading across the sector. In the US, all eyes are on inflation data, which could influence upcoming interest rate decisions. Meanwhile, companies like Netwealth and Cochlear made gains on positive updates and dividend payments.

Market Close 10 Oct 24: Rio snaps up lithium giant Arcadium

The S&P 500 is steadily approaching record highs, driven by gains in technology stocks as investors largely shrugged off geopolitical concerns in the Middle East. The Federal Reserve's meeting minutes revealed a robust debate over the size of the September rate cut, while U.S. 10-year Treasury yields have risen for six consecutive sessions. In corporate news, Alphabet shares dropped amid a historic Big Tech antitrust case, and Tesla shares also fell ahead of its Robotaxi launch. Meanwhile, Rio Tinto is making a significant move into lithium, and oil prices have declined as U.S. crude inventories increased. On the other side, Australian shares are expected to rise, supported by a rebound in iron ore prices, while the Australian dollar has weakened against a stronger U.S. dollar.
