ASX rallied almost 1pc on Monday
\nRates sensitive stocks including Tech and Real Estate led the rally
\nGold hits all-time high, as Bitcoin surges above US$40k<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

The ASX 200 rallied on Monday, up 0.80% and tracking gains in New York.<\/p>\n

On Friday, US stocks closed higher as traders bet against the possibility of another US Fed rate hike, despite Chair Jerome Powell reiterating that it was too soon to speculate on interest rates cuts.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt would be premature to conclude with confidence that we have achieved a sufficiently restrictive stance, or to speculate on when policy might ease,\u201d Powell said Friday in Atlanta. \u201cWe are prepared to tighten policy further if it becomes appropriate to do so.\u201d<\/p>\n

On the ASX, rates sensitive sectors like Tech and Real Estate led the rally today, while Energy and Utilities sectors lagged.<\/p>\n

Gold mining stocks took lots of bids after gold prices surged more than 3% today, trading now at an all-time high of US$2,086.12.<\/p>\n

Energy stocks were mainly in the red after crude prices slumped by over 3%. Brent crude is now trading at US$79.19 a barrel.<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

Bitcoin above US$40k<\/h2>\n

Meanwhile, Bitcoin has hit US$40k for the first time since May 2022, trading now at US$40,780.<\/p>\n

The crypto market has been benefitting from market conviction that the Fed will begin to cut rates next year.<\/p>\n

On Friday, however, the US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) stated that deciding on the approval of instant Bitcoin exchange-traded funds will take more time, as the regulator seeks a unified opinion before issuing its decision.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis has raised hopes for approvals of traded instant\u00a0Bitcoin\u00a0funds,\u201d said Rania\u00a0Gule, a\u00a0market\u00a0analyst at XS.com.<\/p>\n

\u201cFrom my perspective, another incentive supporting the bullish hypothesis for\u00a0Bitcoin\u2019s price is the increase in reserves for stablecoins.<\/p>\n

\u201cApproximately $15.23 billion of Tether is held in the top 10 USDT exchange wallets, indicating purchasing power and anticipated demand for\u00a0Bitcoin,\u201d Gule said.<\/p>\n

\u201cI also anticipate the possibility of\u00a0Bitcoin\u00a0Spot ETFs receiving a single batch approval in January 2024,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n
