Wall Street took a breather overnight as investors paused following two strong sessions, despite a string of upbeat quarterly results from major US companies. General Motors surged 16% after lifting its full-year outlook and easing tariff concerns, while 3M, Coca-Cola and Ford also impressed with strong earnings. The Dow hit a record high, though tech stocks like Nvidia and Alphabet pulled back on renewed US-China trade uncertainty. Meanwhile, gold slumped more than 5% and silver nearly 9% in their steepest falls in over a decade, pressuring mining stocks. ASX futures point to a weaker open, down 0.5%, with updates ahead from Woodside, Iluka, and REA Group.
