A volatile week that included interest rate worries and a meltdown in green metal miners came good in the end as investors bet on a recovery in Chinese demand for Australian raw materials.
Iron ore and copper jumped overnight as Shanghai and Beijing continued to relax Covid restrictions. A retreat in the US dollar following soft US payrolls data boosted gold, crude and other commodities.
Rates worries crimped gains on both sides of the Pacific this week. Perversely, US stocks rallied overnight as soft payrolls data appeared to reduce pressure on the Federal Reserve to hike rates aggressively.
The $S&P 500 Index(.SPX.US$ jumped 1.84 per cent, extending its recovery from last month's 52-week low to 9.6 per cent. The $Nasdaq Composite Index(.IXIC.US$ put on 2.69 per cent.
Last night's private-payrolls miss sharpened hopes tonight's US employment report will indicate rate rises are already have a cooling effect on the labour market, easing pressure on wages.
Interest rates will remain front and centre next week when the Reserve Bank holds its monthly policy meeting.
All eyes are now glued to the RBA interest rate decision due next week, which is expected to provide further cues on market direction.”
