AUD/USD rallied to 0.7166 (+0.47%), the best G10 performer as oil-stress easing lifted commodity currencies and the dollar's geopolitical bid faded.

Aussie trades as a risk-on / China-proxy basket — with S&P 500 at fresh records and Hormuz tail risk fading, the pair gets a clean tailwind. RBA hawkish hold last week still underpins.

China PMI data over the weekend is the next test. Resistance 0.7200 (psychological); support 0.7120. A risk-off reversal on fresh Iran headlines could quickly reprice the entire move.

Tesla closed at $442.10 (+0.40%), drifting higher with the broader Nasdaq. SpaceX-merger overhang dominated the news flow; production headlines absent.

TSLA is trading as a SpaceX-merger event rather than a fundamental EV story right now — shareholders are pricing dilution risk versus optionality. Robotaxi narrative is on the bench until next datapoint.

Any official SpaceX-merger terms or Musk commentary. June delivery numbers loom. Resistance $450; support $432. Break of $430 would be the first technical warning.
