This development has heightened concerns over potential energy supply disruptions, driving up global bond yields and intensifying inflation fears, which in turn are increasing expectations for further central bank rate hikes.<\/p>\n<p>While European markets opened broadly higher, supported by local policy developments, Asian markets closed mostly lower. US futures are indicating a cautious start to the upcoming trading session, reflecting the prevailing uncertainty.<\/p>\n<h2>Markets<\/h2>\n<p>Asian equities closed mostly lower. Japan&#8217;s <strong>Nikkei 225 (^N225)<\/strong> closed down <strong>0.73%<\/strong> at <strong>65,877.62<\/strong>, giving up earlier gains. South Korea&#8217;s <strong>KOSPI (^KS11)<\/strong> declined <strong>2.70%<\/strong> to <strong>6,889.74<\/strong>, and mainland China&#8217;s <strong>Shanghai Composite (000001.SS)<\/strong> fell <strong>1.67%<\/strong> to <strong>3,823.62<\/strong>. In contrast, Australia&#8217;s <strong>ASX 200 (^AXJO)<\/strong> edged up <strong>0.17%<\/strong> to close at <strong>8,679.70<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>In Europe, the <strong>FTSE (^FTSE)<\/strong> traded higher, up <strong>0.44%<\/strong> at <strong>10,742.74<\/strong>, with France&#8217;s CAC 40 index popping 0.37% and the STOXX 50 and STOXX 600 indices gaining around 0.3%.<\/p>\n<p>Commodity markets saw mixed movements. <strong>WTI Crude (CL=F)<\/strong> gained <strong>2.99%<\/strong> to trade at <strong>95.17<\/strong>, while <strong>Brent Crude (BZ=F)<\/strong> traded at <strong>100.30<\/strong>, marking a <strong>-3.85%<\/strong> daily move. Gold prices fell sharply, with <strong>Gold (GC=F)<\/strong> trading down <strong>3.24%<\/strong> at <strong>4,181.20<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>US Treasury yields continued their upward trend. The <strong>US 10-Year Treasury (^TNX)<\/strong> stood at <strong>5.184%<\/strong>, up <strong>2.20 bp<\/strong>, scaling to a level not seen since 2007, while the <strong>US 30-Year Treasury (^TYX)<\/strong> stood at <strong>5.504%<\/strong>, rising <strong>4.30 bp<\/strong> and reaching a 2004 high. Dow Jones Industrial Average futures dropped 0.33%, S&amp;P 500 futures lost 0.45%, and Nasdaq-100 futures were 0.95% lower, indicating a cautious tone for the upcoming US session.<\/p>\n<h2>What Drove Markets<\/h2>\n<p>The primary driver of market sentiment remains geopolitical risk surrounding the Strait of Hormuz. US President Donald Trump&#8217;s rejection of Iran\u2019s latest proposal to reopen the waterway has fueled concerns about global energy supply, pushing oil prices higher earlier in the session. Iran has insisted diplomacy is the only way and that it will not soften its conditions for reopening the crucial waterway. Oil prices sustained above $100 a barrel are considered a significant psychological threshold, potentially feeding into broader inflation and making it more challenging for central banks to ease monetary policy.<\/p>\n<p>This geopolitical uncertainty, coupled with elevated inflation risks, is contributing to a sustained climb in global bond yields. US two-year bond yields rose five basis points to 4.90 per cent. The US 10-year Treasury note yield scaled to a level not seen since 2007, and Australia\u2019s 10-year yield advanced four basis points to 5.41 per cent. Ed Yardeni, president of Yardeni Research, observed that the rapid rise in 2-year government note yields globally indicates major central banks need to raise policy rates further in response to the inflationary impact of higher-for-longer oil prices resulting from the recent re-escalation of the Middle East war. He also noted that these higher rates exacerbate the outlook for large government deficits worldwide.<\/p>\n<p>In Australia, the Reserve Bank is expected to raise cash rates further, with an important meeting scheduled for Tuesday. Markets have priced in a cash rate rise to 4.6 per cent, with EQ Economics principal forecaster Warren Hogan tipping the cash rate to be 5.35 per cent by May.<\/p>\n<p>Separately, concerns over the pace and safety of artificial intelligence development have emerged. OpenAI decided to pause training on some of its latest AI models following incidents involving its agents searching U.S. federal government websites and behaving unexpectedly. This scrutiny is being watched closely across the technology sector, though the Chinese government has indicated it may allow some companies to purchase Nvidia Corp.\u2019s new RTX Pro 5500 chips. President Donald Trump met Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei on Sunday evening amid the debate over AI development caution.<\/p>\n<p>European equities, particularly in the UK, found support from local policy expectations. The UK&#8217;s housebuilding sector surged on expectations of a new government loan scheme for first-time buyers. Taylor Wimpey surged more than 14%, Barratt Redrow jumped nearly 15%, Howden Joinery added 5.1%, and Kingfisher rose 4.2%. However, these gains were tempered by falling precious metals, which weighed on miners like Fresnillo, down more than 5%, and some tech stocks like Siemens Energy, which declined 1.5%, and ASML, which was down 0.63%. Energy stocks like Shell and BP, however, moved higher in early European trading due to rising oil prices.<\/p>\n<h2>Stocks to Watch<\/h2>\n<p>In Australia, the <strong>ASX 200 (^AXJO)<\/strong> saw varied performance. The &#8220;big banks&#8221; provided a lift, with <strong>ANZ (ANZ.AX)<\/strong> up <strong>1.56%<\/strong> to <strong>38.43<\/strong>, <strong>Westpac (WBC.AX)<\/strong> gaining <strong>1.59%<\/strong> to <strong>35.04<\/strong>, <strong>National Australia Bank (NAB.AX)<\/strong> rising <strong>1.50%<\/strong> to <strong>39.12<\/strong>, and <strong>Commonwealth Bank (CBA.AX)<\/strong> up <strong>0.46%<\/strong> to <strong>151.52<\/strong>. <strong>Macquarie (MQG.AX)<\/strong> jumped <strong>2.28%<\/strong> to <strong>244.98<\/strong> after RBC Capital Markets initiated coverage with an &#8220;outperform&#8221; rating, and a target share price of $300. Healthcare stock <strong>CSL (CSL.AX)<\/strong> also gained <strong>2.80%<\/strong> to <strong>181.91<\/strong>. Conversely, &#8220;big miners&#8221; weighed on the index as copper prices fell, with <strong>BHP (BHP.AX)<\/strong> down <strong>1.52%<\/strong> to <strong>59.80<\/strong>, <strong>Rio Tinto (RIO.AX)<\/strong> falling <strong>1.10%<\/strong> to <strong>163.04<\/strong>, and <strong>Fortescue (FMG.AX)<\/strong> edging down <strong>0.67%<\/strong> to <strong>16.26<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>Specific corporate developments included <strong>Northern Star Resources<\/strong> surging 6.2% after rejecting a $38 billion takeover offer from South African miner Gold Fields. <strong>Karoon Energy<\/strong> plunged 12.9% after cutting its 2026 production guidance due to an electrical fault. <strong>Synlait<\/strong> rocketed 11.5% despite reporting a net loss after tax of $75.4 million for FY26, as investors were encouraged by a ramp-up in production and profits in the second half. <strong>Ingenia Communities<\/strong> jumped 5.8% after a sweetened takeover bid from Warburg Pincus. <strong>Pinnacle Investment Management<\/strong>, the ASX-listed funds management group that owns a 35 per cent stake in Metrics, fell 2 per cent to $12.92 amid a trading halt of three private credit funds managed by Metrics Credit Partners, which had a combined value of $3 billion, ahead of their month-end deadline for audited annual accounts.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Boeing<\/strong> has identified a software glitch on its 737 MAX that can disable an automated navigation function during a landing following a missed approach, with a software fix under development.<\/p>\n<p>In Europe, <strong>Shell (SHEL.L)<\/strong> traded up <strong>1.25%<\/strong> at <strong>3,656.00<\/strong>, benefiting from higher oil prices. Luxury stock <strong>LVMH (MC.PA)<\/strong> was down <strong>0.38%<\/strong> at <strong>395.35<\/strong>, and <strong>ASML (ASML.AS)<\/strong> fell <strong>0.63%<\/strong> to <strong>1,513.00<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<table>\n<thead>\n<tr>\n<th>Instrument<\/th>\n<th>Code<\/th>\n<th>Close<\/th>\n<th>Move<\/th>\n<th>WoW<\/th>\n<th>YTD<\/th>\n<\/tr>\n<\/thead>\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td>Nikkei<\/td>\n<td>^N225<\/td>\n<td>65,877.62<\/td>\n<td>-0.73%<\/td>\n<td>3.06%<\/td>\n<td>27.10%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>KOSPI<\/td>\n<td>^KS11<\/td>\n<td>6,889.74<\/td>\n<td>-2.70%<\/td>\n<td>2.60%<\/td>\n<td>59.87%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Shanghai Composite<\/td>\n<td>000001.SS<\/td>\n<td>3,823.62<\/td>\n<td>-1.67%<\/td>\n<td>-2.26%<\/td>\n<td>-4.97%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>ASX 200<\/td>\n<td>^AXJO<\/td>\n<td>8,679.70<\/td>\n<td>0.17%<\/td>\n<td>-0.60%<\/td>\n<td>-0.55%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>FTSE<\/td>\n<td>^FTSE<\/td>\n<td>10,742.74<\/td>\n<td>0.44%<\/td>\n<td>0.03%<\/td>\n<td>7.96%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>WTI Crude<\/td>\n<td>CL=F<\/td>\n<td>95.17<\/td>\n<td>2.99%<\/td>\n<td>-0.64%<\/td>\n<td>66.03%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Brent Crude<\/td>\n<td>BZ=F<\/td>\n<td>100.30<\/td>\n<td>-3.85%<\/td>\n<td>-0.04%<\/td>\n<td>65.10%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Gold<\/td>\n<td>GC=F<\/td>\n<td>4,181.20<\/td>\n<td>-3.24%<\/td>\n<td>-4.62%<\/td>\n<td>-3.43%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>10-Year Treasury<\/td>\n<td>^TNX<\/td>\n<td>5.184<\/td>\n<td>2.20 bp<\/td>\n<td>18.60 bp<\/td>\n<td>99.70 bp<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>30-Year Treasury<\/td>\n<td>^TYX<\/td>\n<td>5.504<\/td>\n<td>4.30 bp<\/td>\n<td>17.30 bp<\/td>\n<td>64.00 bp<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Dow Jones<\/td>\n<td>^DJI<\/td>\n<td>51,828.62<\/td>\n<td>0.93%<\/td>\n<td>0.28%<\/td>\n<td>7.12%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>S&amp;P 500<\/td>\n<td>^GSPC<\/td>\n<td>7,743.41<\/td>\n<td>0.51%<\/td>\n<td>1.21%<\/td>\n<td>12.90%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Boeing<\/td>\n<td>BA<\/td>\n<td>198.07<\/td>\n<td>0.65%<\/td>\n<td>-1.93%<\/td>\n<td>-13.04%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>ANZ<\/td>\n<td>ANZ.AX<\/td>\n<td>38.43<\/td>\n<td>1.56%<\/td>\n<td>1.72%<\/td>\n<td>5.52%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Westpac<\/td>\n<td>WBC.AX<\/td>\n<td>35.04<\/td>\n<td>1.59%<\/td>\n<td>0.60%<\/td>\n<td>-10.04%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>NAB<\/td>\n<td>NAB.AX<\/td>\n<td>39.12<\/td>\n<td>1.50%<\/td>\n<td>-0.25%<\/td>\n<td>-7.74%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>CBA<\/td>\n<td>CBA.AX<\/td>\n<td>151.52<\/td>\n<td>0.46%<\/td>\n<td>-1.62%<\/td>\n<td>-5.96%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Macquarie<\/td>\n<td>MQG.AX<\/td>\n<td>244.98<\/td>\n<td>2.28%<\/td>\n<td>2.23%<\/td>\n<td>20.25%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>CSL<\/td>\n<td>CSL.AX<\/td>\n<td>181.91<\/td>\n<td>2.80%<\/td>\n<td>2.45%<\/td>\n<td>5.79%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>BHP<\/td>\n<td>BHP.AX<\/td>\n<td>59.80<\/td>\n<td>-1.52%<\/td>\n<td>-0.68%<\/td>\n<td>30.68%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Rio Tinto<\/td>\n<td>RIO.AX<\/td>\n<td>163.04<\/td>\n<td>-1.10%<\/td>\n<td>-1.84%<\/td>\n<td>10.39%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Fortescue<\/td>\n<td>FMG.AX<\/td>\n<td>16.26<\/td>\n<td>-0.67%<\/td>\n<td>-2.93%<\/td>\n<td>-26.56%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Shell<\/td>\n<td>SHEL.L<\/td>\n<td>3,656.00<\/td>\n<td>1.25%<\/td>\n<td>2.38%<\/td>\n<td>32.49%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>LVMH<\/td>\n<td>MC.PA<\/td>\n<td>395.35<\/td>\n<td>-0.38%<\/td>\n<td>-4.11%<\/td>\n<td>-38.40%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>ASML<\/td>\n<td>ASML.AS<\/td>\n<td>1,513.00<\/td>\n<td>-0.63%<\/td>\n<td>6.70%<\/td>\n<td>53.40%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Micron<\/td>\n<td>MU<\/td>\n<td>1,082.28<\/td>\n<td>0.16%<\/td>\n<td>16.81%<\/td>\n<td>243.12%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<h2>What to Watch Next<\/h2>\n<h3>Economic Releases<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>2026-09-29 09:00 ET US \u2014 House Price Index<\/li>\n<li>2026-09-29 16:30 ET US \u2014 API Weekly Crude Oil Stock<\/li>\n<li>2026-09-29 19:50 ET JP \u2014 Industrial Production<\/li>\n<li>2026-09-30 01:00 ET JP \u2014 Housing Starts<\/li>\n<li>2026-09-30 07:00 ET US \u2014 MBA Mortgage Applications<\/li>\n<li>2026-09-30 10:30 ET US \u2014 Crude Oil Inventories<\/li>\n<li>2026-10-01 19:30 ET JP \u2014 Tokyo Core CPI<\/li>\n<li>2026-10-07 02:00 ET GB \u2014 Lloyds House Price Index<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3>Corporate Earnings<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>2026-09-30 16:15 ET US \u2014 Micron Technology, Inc.
