Australian stocks are poised to open higher after modest gains on Wall Street. ASX futures are up by 0.4% ahead of Wednesday's session, suggesting that the S&P/ASX 200 could reverse losses from the past two days. Before the bell, Megaport announced A$458.9 million in new AI infrastructure contracts and an entitlement offer to raise A$827.3 million. Northern Star, in which activist Elliott has announced a large stake, released a much-anticipated resources and reserves update that for the first time included estimates for its prized Hemi project.
