The Aussie market is clinging to gains after a choppy session, with the ASX 200 flirting with the 8,000-point mark before retreating. US markets provided some support, buoyed by optimism over a potentially softer approach to tariffs. Tech stocks led local gains, mirroring a strong Nasdaq performance, but with Australia's tech sector being small, it wasn’t enough to lift the whole market. Looking ahead, the federal budget and key inflation data could shake things up, but with the RBA unlikely to move on rates next week, investors remain in wait-and-see mode.

US markets rose overnight, buoyed by hopes of softer tariff measures. Tesla rebounded 10%, marking its strongest rally since the post-election surge, while Chinese rival BYD surpassed Tesla in revenue. In contrast, Azek slumped following its deal with James Hardie. Bond yields climbed on reports suggesting narrower tariffs from the Trump administration. Across the Atlantic, European markets ended flat as investor caution prevailed.
