Tech-led rally lifts Asia markets to fresh highs as rate worries ease

Asian stocks rose on Thursday as technology shares drove gains, offsetting rate-uncertainty, with South Korea’s KOSPI hitting a record near 5,673 as Samsung Electronics led memory-chip gains on AI demand and chip-price optimism; Samsung’s HBM4 mass production news and a chip-shortage backdrop supported pricing. Australia’s ASX 200 also reached a record around 9,118 on strength in mining and banks, while Japan’s Nikkei rose on a weaker yen boosting exporters.

Oil Prices and Fed Rate Path Shake Markets.

Oil prices surged after OPEC+ announced a surprise cut in their output target, causing a ripple effect in stock markets and boosting the dollar due to fears about global inflation.
