Morning Report 20 May 24: Aussie stocks set for gains at the open, Miners in focus after Chinese data

The Aussie market is opening to mixed signals from Wall Street, where the Dow closed above 40,000 for the first time. Excitement surged as Reddit's stock jumped 10% following a new AI partnership with OpenAI, and Nvidia's sky-high earnings expectations underscored the booming AI sector. European markets softened amid stable inflation but anticipated rate cuts, while the Australian market edges towards record highs driven by positive Chinese industrial production and massive government intervention in its property sector. Amid rising oil and gold prices and a slightly stronger Aussie dollar, all eyes are on the earnings reports from Elders and Xero, set to steer the tech sector's course.
