Nasdaq 100: Short-term bullish trend remains intact above 24,535 key support

The Nasdaq 100’s short-term bullish trend remains intact above 24,535 support, despite a -0.7% pullback on 23 September amid profit-taking in mega-cap tech. Recent AI-driven optimism, fuelled by Nvidia’s $100B and Oracle’s $300B investments into OpenAI, continues to underpin momentum. Technicals point to potential upside toward 24,890–25,270, while a break below 24,535 could trigger a deeper corrective move.

AUD/USD: Bullish reversal towards 0.6700 major resistance as Australia's monthly CPI rose to a 13-month high

AUD/USD rebounded from its 22 Sep low of 0.6575 after a -2% pull-back, with bullish momentum reinforced by stronger monthly CPI data (3.0% y/y, a 13-month high) and narrowing yield spreads. In today’s Asia session, the AUD outperformed majors, with the USD down -0.4% versus AUD. Near-term bias stays bullish above 0.6580, eyeing resistances at 0.6655 and 0.6680/0.6700, while a break below 0.6580 risks exposing 0.6555.
