- Global stocks rallied as AI optimism lifted equities, with the Dow, S&P 500, and Nasdaq all set to climb according to MarketWatch.
- Oil prices extended their decline following a U.S. statement that shipments through the Strait of Hormuz reached a six-month high, helping push bond yields lower.
Why it matters: Investors get a double tailwind: AI-fueled equity gains on one side and easing inflation pressure from falling oil on the other, which pulled bond yields down and supported the rally across both stocks and bonds.
