미국 증시 개장: 지정학적 낙관론에 주요 지수 상승, 기술 대기업 AAPL 실적은 장 마감 후 발표 예정

OPEN: US indices opened higher amid risk-on trade, after reports that Iranian President Pezeshkian said the Supreme Leader has granted the government some authority on dialogue. US equity futures gained on the reports and the gains extended into the cash open. Treasuries and spot gold rose, while the Dollar and the crude complex came under pressure. WTI and Brent are lower by c. USD 7/bbl, leaving Energy as the clear sectoral laggard. Sectors are otherwise broadly in the green, led by Consumer Discretionary, followed by Materials and Communication Services. Earnings have been quiet so far, as is typical at the start of the week, with Apple (AAPL) the highlight after-hours. In FX, CHF, EUR and GBP are all firmer against the Greenback to varying degrees, with EUR among the outperformers despite Fitch’s negative outlook on France. AUD underperforms ahead of the RBA overnight. Precious metals are firmer, and Treasuries are bid across the curve, helped by the drop in oil and the softer Dollar. Looking ahead, ISM Manufacturing PMI is due at the top of the hour, and Fed speak is expected from Goolsbee and possibly from the hawkish dissenters, Cook and Hammack.
