The ASX 200 fell to an 11-week low as miners and financials dragged the index down, with the US 10-year Treasury yield breaking above 5% for the first time since 2007 and markets pricing a 77% chance of an RBA hike this month. Health Care and Consumer Staples bucked the trend as defensive flows took hold.
The Wall Street Wrap: September 14, 2026
Stocks fell Monday as AI industry leaders, including Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei, called for slowing the pace of AI capability development over safety concerns, triggering a global selloff in AI-linked names. Bank of America tumbled after CEO Brian Moynihan warned of a sharp investment banking fee decline, Treasury yields hit a fresh multi-year high before pulling back, and President Trump dismissed the AI safety warnings as a "sick conspiracy" ahead of this week's Fed meeting.
ASX Pre-Market: Tuesday, 15 September 2026
ASX 200 futures point to a modest pullback after Wall Street's AI-linked selloff overnight and a brief touch of 5% on the US 10-year Treasury yield, with this week's Fed decision now priced at roughly 90% odds of a hike.
ASX Pre-Market: Monday, 14 September 2026

Weekly US Macro Recap: Sticky Inflation Revives Fed Rate Hike Risk for September
Six weeks ago, the debate inside the Federal Reserve was how quickly to cut. This week's data reopened a different question entirely: whether the next move is a hike. Nothing about that shift happened in one release. It built across five days, as inflation data, consumer sentiment and labour market indicators each landed a little worse than the story markets had been pricing, and by Friday afternoon the probability distribution around next week's FOMC decision had moved further than most economists expected it to move in a single week.
The Wall Street Wrap: September 11, 2026
Stocks rebounded Friday, snapping a four-day losing streak, as oil prices retreated even as a hotter-than-expected core CPI reading pushed Fed rate-hike odds above 85%. Dell hit a record high and HPE surged on AI server demand, while the Houthis advanced to a strategic Yemeni island and Saudi Arabia shut down a key pipeline after attacks, and Iran and Russia used the BRICS summit to blast Western sanctions.

The Wall Street Wrap: September 10, 2026
Stocks fell for a fourth straight session as oil rocketed past $100 a barrel and August's producer price index did little to ease rate-hike fears, while the 10-year Treasury yield hit its highest level since 2023. Apple rallied a day after its foldable iPhone launch, Oracle and Adobe both beat earnings after the bell, and the ECB delivered its third rate hike of the year as Middle East tensions keep reshaping markets on both sides of the Atlantic.
