Global financial markets are experiencing significant shifts, with Japanese stocks leading the charge following the election of a new pro-stimulus leader. This development has sent the yen plunging, reflecting investor confidence in anticipated economic policies.

Meanwhile, US equity futures are showing upward momentum, as investors bet on the resilience of the American economy and the likelihood of continued Federal Reserve easing. The S&P 500 notably gained over 1% last week, even as a US government shutdown delayed the release of crucial economic data. Bonds have seen a decline, with the yield on 10-year Treasuries climbing approximately three basis points, while a key gauge of the dollar has strengthened, painting a complex but active picture across international markets.
