The ASX200 is set to rise with futures up 0.42pc near 8.30am AEDT.
The local bourse will benefit in tandem with a strong NVIDIA-result-led US session overnight that saw the S&P500 and NASDAQ both end up in the green >2.0pc.
The S&P and Dow both closed at record levels. So long as Uncle Sam can keep pulling that off, it’s probably going to keep being a decent year.
