	Description:		The Aussie market surged to a three-month high, driven by a powerful mining rally and Wall Street momentum. BHP reclaimed its title as Australia’s most valuable company from CBA, hitting a two-year high as safe-haven demand pushed gold past $5,100 and silver to record peaks. 10 of 11 sectors lifted, however DroneShield tumbled 6% on pipeline concerns despite record revenues. All eyes now pivot to tomorrow's critical inflation data, with markets pricing a 60% chance of a February RBA rate hike. US tech earnings from Meta, Microsoft, and Apple add to a high-stakes week as the ASX targets 9,000 points.
