Morning Report 29 Aug 25: S&P 500 tops 6,500 on solid US economic data

Wall Street climbed to fresh record highs overnight, with the S&P 500 hitting a new peak as Nvidia’s results fuelled the AI-driven rally. Strong US economic data, however, tempered expectations for near-term rate cuts. In commodities, oil gained as hopes for a Ukraine peace deal faded, while gold reached a five-week high as the US dollar weakened. Closer to home, Aussie shares are set to open lower on the final day of reporting season.
