BREAKING: Stock market surges as government shutdown deal sparks frenzied trading

0

FROM DAILY MAIL: The stock market has surged in premarket trading after Democrats and Republicans agreed a deal to end the record 40-day government shutdown.

Nasdaq futures jumped 1.45 percent – rebounding sharply from last week’s AI-driven selloff – while S&P 500 futures climbed 0.9 percent and Dow futures added 176 points ahead of the opening bell on Monday.

Chipmakers led the charge, with Micron and TSMC posting strong gains alongside Magnificent Seven leaders Alphabet and Tesla.

Treasury yields spiked higher as risk appetite returned, lifting gold futures and sending the dollar firmer against the yen while steadying against the euro and pound. Oil and Bitcoin prices edged up.


Eight Senate Democrats sided with Republicans to reach a bipartisan agreement to fund the government through January, and the markets reacted.

Global markets tracked Wall Street’s gains. Hong Kong closed 1.7% higher, Frankfurt added a similar amount near midday, and a broader risk-on sentiment turned boards green across Asia and Europe.
