Markets are reacting today as investors digest several key developments. The US government shutdown, which had dragged on for over a month, is now officially over, removing a major source of uncertainty.

Meanwhile, traders are reassessing expectations for a potential Federal Reserve rate cut, with inflation and labor market data continuing to influence sentiment. Commodity markets are also moving: gold has gained on safe-haven demand and hopes for lower interest rates, while oil prices are under pressure amid supply concerns and a softer demand outlook.

To help us make sense of these shifts and what they mean for investors, on Market View, Frankie Ho speaks to David Chow, Director, Azure Capital.
