The Australian share market is predicted to open lower, following a stabilization of US stocks after a sharp decline. The ASX is anticipated to follow a soft trend after reaching a two-year low on Thursday, mirroring the global market's reaction to the US Federal Reserve's prediction of fewer rate cuts in 2025.

Darden Restaurants, the company behind Olive Garden and other chains, helped lift the market after leaping 14.9 per cent. It delivered profit for the latest quarter that edged past analysts’ expectations. The operator of LongHorn Steakhouses also gave a forecast for revenue for this fiscal year that topped analysts’.

In the bond market, yields were mixed a day after shooting higher on expectations that the Fed would deliver fewer cuts to rates in 2025. Reports on the US economy came in mixed. The yield on the 10-year Treasury rose to 4.59 per cent from 4.52 per cent late Wednesday and from less than 4.20 per cent earlier this month.
