The index hit its morning peak after Ukraine’s president reported progress in peace talks with Russia.A “risk on” session saw growth and speculative stocks outperform, supported by bond proxies. The energy and materials sectors turned positive mid-morning despite overnight declines in crude, iron ore and metals.What’s driving the marketThe benchmark had its highest finish in three weeks within reach as all 11 sectors advanced. Positive leads from the US provided a solid platform. The S&amp;P 500 climbed 2.14 per cent overnight to its first gain in four sessions.“The major Wall Street indices rebounded last night on easing inflationary concerns as benchmark oil prices slid below US$100 a barrel for the first time since 1 March 2022. Stocks rallied partly in response to promising core wholesale prices data for February, which reflected the smallest advance in 15 months,” Kunal Sawhney, CEO of research group Kalkine, said.Investors kept an eye on Ukraine-Russia peace talks. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy this morning said the two sides were moving closer, but needed more time to secure a deal.“The positions during the negotiations already sound more realistic. But time is still needed for the decisions to be in the interests of Ukraine,” Zelenskiy said.The I.T. sector put on 3.07 per cent as the cost of long-term borrowing backed off a three-year high.

The index has been ranging between 6960 and 7200 for the last three weeks. Today’s advance lifted the index towards the upper end of the range.Bond yields retreated ahead of tonight’s USFederal Reserverates decision.“There is wide expectation that the central bank will announce an increase of 25 basis points in its short-term rate amidst mounting inflationary pressures. While inflation is standing at its highest level in decades, the Fed is likely to cautiously tackle the high inflation while keeping economic growth in check,” Kalkine’s Sawhney said.Going upBorrowing-dependent growth stocks set the pace. Afterpay parent company Block lifted 7.1 per cent, Life360 4.73 per cent and WiseTech 3.48 per cent. Xero added 3.2 per cent, Appen 2.99 per cent and Zip Co 3.01 per cent.Magellan bounced 4.33 per cent off a seven-and-a-half-year low on news the fund manager will buy back up to 10 million shares on-market to support the struggling share price. The buyback covers up to 5.4 per cent of shares on issue.Chair Hamish McLennan said, “We believe the on-market buy-back announced today represents an effective way to enhance value for shareholders.”Travel stocks rallied after New Zealand announced it will open its borders to vaccinated Australians from April 13.

Trade in the company’s shares was halted pending an announcement on a “significant funding development”.Outdoor adventure group Kathmandu firmed 2.54 per cent after changing its trading name from Kathmandu Holdings to KMD Brands. The new name reflects the group’s widening interests since acquiring Rip Curl and Oboz. The share ticker remained unchanged as KMD.Suncorp increased its estimate of natural hazard costs for the year to $1.1 billion from $1.075 billion after receiving 34,000 claims relating to flooding in Queensland and NSW.
