Tech rebound lifts Asia stocks as AI fears ease

Asian equities rose with Japan’s Nikkei 225 up about 1.1% and TOPIX up 1.4% as tech shares recovered from recent losses, while Australia modestly climbed and India’s markets were little changed amid Lunar New Year holiday closures limiting volume. Investors weighed AI-related concerns against a milder tech rally, with U.S. futures largely flat ahead of Fed January minutes and Friday’s PCE inflation data. China, Korea, Hong Kong, and Singapore remained closed for the Lunar New Year, keeping broader activity subdued.

Japan stocks scale new highs on snap-election bets and weak yen

Japanese equities rose to record highs as investors bet Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi will call a snap election, fueling the Takaichi trade with a weaker yen boosting exporters. The Nikkei 225 topped 54,000 at 54,341.23 and the Topix hit a fresh peak as the yen slid past 159 per dollar. Regional markets were mixed, with silver surging above $90 while U.S. indices fell amid volatility from political proposals.

Investors remain cautious ahead of key events including the US Federal Reserve's rate decision and corporate earnings, but broader sentiment is supported by recent trade agreements and positive Wall Street performance.

"Market Turmoil: Asian Stocks Slammed by CPI Shock, Wall Street Falls Sharply, Dow Down 500"

Asian stocks tumbled, with Japan's Nikkei retreating from 34-year highs, as U.S. inflation data raised concerns about higher interest rates. Tech-heavy indexes saw steep declines, while Hong Kong's Hang Seng and South Korea's KOSPI also fell. The Nikkei's losses were limited by expectations of a dovish Bank of Japan. Australian stocks slid due to a warning from Commonwealth Bank Of Australia and losses in mining stocks, while broader Asian markets also retreated.

"Global Markets Brace for Record Highs and US Inflation Report"

Tech-heavy stock indexes like Nasdaq and Japan's Nikkei are close to all-time highs, despite a temporary setback due to the U.S. inflation update. The U.S. annual consumer price inflation is expected to decrease to a near 3-year low of 2.9%, leading to steady rates and bond markets. The AI and tech frenzy, along with a softening yen, propelled Japan's Nikkei to a 34-year high, with SoftBank and chip developer Arm Holdings contributing to the surge. Meanwhile, the Nasdaq surpassed its record closing high from November 2021, but Tesla's stock fell amid a price war with Chinese rivals. Bitcoin reached its highest level since December 2021, and in Europe, sterling rose while British stocks and bonds fell after weak UK pay growth data.

"Nikkei 225 Surges to Near All-Time High on Strong Tech Earnings and Weak Yen"

Japan's Nikkei share average closed at a 34-year high, climbing 2.89% to 37,963.97, with tech-related shares and strong corporate earnings supporting the benchmark stock index. Chip-sector giant Tokyo Electron and SoftBank Group Corp were among the top gainers, while a strong performance on Wall Street and a weakened yen boosted the value of overseas revenue for exporters. However, concerns about the US consumer price index report and Otsuka Holdings' experimental drug failure impacted the market.

"Global Markets Await US Inflation Report: Stocks Rise, Dollar Steady"

Japanese shares reach a 34-year peak, with the Nikkei climbing to 38,010, driven by foreign investors attracted by low valuations and changes in corporate governance, while the dollar remains steady ahead of a key U.S. inflation report. Bitcoin remains strong after crossing $50,000, and attention is on crucial reports on January's U.S. Consumer Price Index and the Producer Price Index. The yen is perilously close to 150 per dollar, and there is risk of an upside surprise in the inflation report, which could nudge yields higher and further strengthen the dollar.

"China's Stimulus Boost Propels Asian Stocks to New Highs"

Most Asian stocks rose as Chinese markets extended a rebound on news of more monetary stimulus measures, while Japanese shares lagged due to mixed cues from the Bank of Japan. Chinese stocks led gains after a cut in the reserve requirement ratio (RRR) for local banks, signaling more liquidity to be injected into the economy. Hong Kong's gains were stymied by losses in electric vehicle stocks following disappointing fourth-quarter earnings from Tesla. Bigger gains outside China were restrained by caution ahead of U.S. data and the Federal Reserve meeting, while Japan saw more profit-taking after the Bank of Japan signaled a potential pivot away from its ultra-dovish policy.
