Wall Street rebounded overnight, with major indexes ending higher as investors responded positively to corporate earnings and growing optimism around easing tariff tensions. Industrial giant 3M held steady, maintaining its full-year outlook, while Tesla reported a 20% decline in automotive revenue. In commodities, oil prices surged 2% following the announcement of new sanctions on Iran, while gold briefly hit a fresh record high before pulling back. Copper also edged higher, defying a generally downbeat outlook for global demand. Closer to home, Aussie shares are poised to rise on Wednesday, despite a downward revision to global growth forecasts from the IMF. Meanwhile, the strong US dollar continues to pressure the Aussie dollar, which has weakened in response.
