The Nasdaq hit a fresh record Monday as leading bourses mostly rose, while gold also scored a new all-time high as the shock death of Iranian President Ebrahim Raisi helped bolster the haven investment."Gold and copper have hit record highs, (and) silver jumped to an 11-year high... after the death of Iran's president in a helicopter crash," noted Neil Wilson, chief market analyst at Finalto trading group.
Gold prices rose to an all-time high on Monday as a cocktail of factors from U.S. rate cut expectations, China's stimulus measures to geopolitical tensions lifted demand, with the momentum also carrying silver to a more than 11-year peak. Spot gold rose 0.9% to $2,435.96 per ounce as of 2:26 p.m. ET (1826 GMT) after hitting a record high of $2,449.89 earlier in the session. Data last week showed that U.S. consumer prices increased less than expected in April, suggesting that inflation resumed its downward trend, boosting expectations for a September interest rate cut.
MPACT and Keppel DC REIT, at second and third place, were neck and neck at $54.6 million and $54.3 million respectively.
Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies were falling Monday, with the crypto sector’s momentum still highly dependent on flows into exchange-traded funds.

Broadly speaking, the global backdrop for Asian markets is still bright, with investors confident that the Fed will soon cut U.S. interest rates keeping the dollar, bond yields and volatility in check, and boosting risk assets. But there's a cloud that shows no sign of lifting: China. The economic "data dump" from Beijing on Friday showed that China's recovery is sputtering - investment growth slowed, retail sales expanded at the slowest pace since late 2022, and new home prices fell at the fastest rate in nine years.

A crucial earnings report from AI leader Nvidia greets a stock market that hit new records last week.
The CEO of JPMorgan Chase made it clear Monday he now envisions a day when he will no longer run the largest US bank in fewer than five years.
The Nasdaq closed at a record high on Monday while the S&P 500 gained slightly as technology stocks advanced ahead of Nvidia's highly anticipated earnings and investors gauged the timing of an interest rate cut by the Federal Reserve. The S&P 500 technology index led gains among the 11 major S&P sectors, rising 1.32%, helped by chipmakers such as Nvidia, which advanced 2.49% ahead of its quarterly results on Wednesday. Investors will look for evidence in Nvidia's earnings that the AI chip leader can maintain its explosive growth and stay ahead of rivals.
Morgan Stanley chief investment officer Mike Wilson believes an improving growth outlook and an earnings rebound will drive the S&P 500 higher over the next year.
As of May 2024, the US stock market has shown robust performance with major indices nearing record highs, buoyed by optimistic economic indicators such as a cooling April CPI report which has fueled hopes for potential Federal Reserve interest rate cuts. In this context of economic optimism and potential shifts in monetary policy, dividend stocks may offer investors a blend of income generation and stability.
Traders are pricing in a big move for Nvidia’s shares after the chipmaker reports earnings on Wednesday, though expectations for volatility are more muted than in the past, U.S. options markets show. Nvidia's options are primed for an 8.7% swing in either direction by Friday, according to data from options analytics firm Trade Alert. While massive by most measures, that implied move would fall far short of the 16.4% jump Nvidia’s shares notched after the company’s most recent quarterly earnings report.

NEW YORK (Reuters) -The dollar edged up against the euro on Monday as investors awaited further clues on the path of U.S. interest rates in the wake of cautious comments from Federal Reserve officials, even as inflation showed signs of cooling. Federal Reserve officials are not ready to say inflation is heading to the U.S. central bank's 2% target after data last week showed a welcome easing in consumer price pressures in April, with several on Monday calling for continued policy caution. Atlanta Fed President Raphael Bostic said on Monday it will take a while for the Federal Reserve to be confident that inflation is on track back to its goal.
