Across Markets…
Australian shares are poised open higher, following gains on Wall Street, as September prepares to pass the baton to October.
A quiet local week puts the spotlight on the US with the first presidential election debate, talks on a potential fourth package of stimulus measures, US President Donald Trump’s push to fill the “empty” US Supreme Court seat and September payroll data on the agenda.
ASX futures were up 21 points or 0.4 per cent to 5951. The local currency slid towards a US69¢ handle before recovering.
On Wall Street, techs advanced in what was seen as a buy the dip rally, helping all three main benchmarks rise on Friday in New York.
The Dow rose 359 points or 1.3 per cent to retop 27,000; the S&P 500 rose 1.6 per cent to near the 3300 mark; and the Nasdaq rose 2.3 per cent putting 11,000 back on the radar.
In a note, Bank of America summed up the year so far: “COVID-19 deaths about 1m, stock market crash $US30trn, cash on sidelines $US5trn, global GDP loss $US10trn, US unemployment claims up 50m, monetary & fiscal stimulus $US21trn, central bank asset purchases $US1.5bn per hour, stock market rally $US30trn, ‘super-V’ recovery in GDP & EPS; extreme times…extreme moves.”
The SPI is up 21 points this morning.

Emerging gold explorer Red Mountain Mining (ASX:RMX) will raise $800,000 from professional and sophisticated investors to launch into a number of exploration programs, including maiden drilling at the Mt Maitland project.
Funds will also be directed towards the Koonenberry gold project In NSW, and the Mukabi Kasiri project in the DRC.
Red Mountain’s 62sqkm Mt Maitland project in WA produced gold at an average grade of 19.3 grams per tonne (g/t) in the early 1900s. That’s very high grade.
Stretching out over 19km of highly prospective Archean greenstone belts, there’s significant potential for this project to host more high-grade shear-hosted gold deposits, the company says.
The Koonenberry project in NSW is right next door to a new high-profile, high-grade gold discovery made by fellow explorer Manhattan Corp (ASX:MHC).
The highlight intercept of 7m at 18.16 grams per tonne (g/t) gold sent Manhattan up +50 per cent to multi-year highs.
