Global stock markets saw an upswing on Tuesday, led by a rally in Wall Street, as optimism overshadowed concerns over China's vague stimulus measures. This comes as investor attention focuses on upcoming US inflation data and corporate earnings expected later this week.

Technology stocks were pivotal in Wall Street's bounce-back, lifting the S&P 500 by over 2%. The previous day's losses sparked by escalating Middle East tensions and reassessment of potential Federal Reserve interest rate changes were reversed.

European stocks fell due to uncertainties surrounding China's fiscal plans. Meanwhile, US Treasury yields saw minor fluctuations, and oil prices dropped amid easing supply disruption fears in the Middle East. Investors are now looking to the Fed's next moves as the market awaits crucial economic indicators.
