Following US equities rise overnight, the Aussie share market is set to open higher, with the futures suggesting a rise of 0.67% or 7021 points.
What to watch:
- Recce Pharmaceuticals (ASX:RCE) is set to report their 3Q21 Earnings today.
- The Oil price dropped 3.51%. The decline comes after concerns around the demand from India, amid the current wave of COVID-19 infections, as well as the hacking of the Colonial Pipeline in the US.
- The Gold price bounced off a one-week low, rising 0.62%, so keep an eye on Gold miners like Newcrest Mining (ASX:NCM) and Resolute Mining (ASX:RSG).
- Copper is down 1.09% while Iron Ore plunged 2.9% after China cautioned on commodity prices.

Trading ideas:
