US stock markets opened higher on Monday, with the Dow Jones Industrial Average and Nasdaq Composite posting early gains as investor sentiment improved following a volatile week for technology shares.
The broad-based advance suggests a tentative stabilization in risk appetite after recent turbulence in the tech sector.
Simultaneously, gold and Bitcoin are tracking for a weekly gain, marking a notable shift in market sentiment after a period of sustained selling pressure on traditional safe-haven assets.
The synchronized recovery in both commodities suggests investors are hedging against lingering geopolitical uncertainties, particularly following recent escalations between the US and Iran.
The market's cautious optimism comes as the earnings season kicks off, with investors closely monitoring corporate guidance for signs of economic resilience.
Additionally, attention is fixed on upcoming US inflation data, which will provide critical clues on the Federal Reserve's next policy moves.
