Morning Report 02 Dec 25: Stock rally pauses as crypto sector takes a hit

Wall Street slipped overnight as rising bond yields and weakness in crypto-exposed stocks weighed on sentiment. US Treasuries also declined, with fresh corporate debt issuance adding pressure after Japan’s bond sell-off last week. Still, Black Friday and Cyber Monday sales helped lift major US retailers. Elsewhere, European markets kicked off December on the back foot, dragged lower by a slide in Airbus. In commodities, oil rose more than a dollar a barrel after OPEC’s latest move, while silver hit a record high as growing rate-cut expectations pressured the US dollar. Back home, Aussie shares are set to open higher, with Collins Foods earnings in focus.
