US markets closed almost unchanged on Monday, despite underlying volatility. The S&P 500 notched its sixth winning session, as investors appeared to look past the recent US credit downgrade. UnitedHealth shares extended their rally after the CEO bought into a beaten-down stock, while Reddit shares slipped amid concerns over a potential threat from Google’s AI developments. Meanwhile, the US dollar weakened following Moody’s downgrade, helping gold prices surge. Closer to home, Australian shares are set to open higher on Tuesday, with attention turning to the RBA and its widely expected interest rate cut.
