The ASX200 is set to rise with futures up 0.26% near 8.30am AEDT on Friday, following a PCE inflation report in the US that didn’t contain any nasty surprises.
The S&P500 had another record run, ending up +0.52% and logging the best February in nearly a decade. The NASDAQ followed suit as it’s wont to do, landing in the green +0.90%.
It’s likely Australian traders are going to turn their eyes back to the rally and forget the economy. Let’s hope so, anyway.
Interesting times.
