Asian stocks set to rise after US tech rally

1 min read

Stocks in Asia were positioned to edge higher after a rally in several US technology giants boosted confidence that an AI-driven bull market has further scope. Equity futures signaled positive openings in Tokyo and Hong Kong, with Sydney futures largely unchanged. The reaction suggests that gains led by large US technology names are influencing Asian market sentiment at the open, potentially supporting a risk-on mood across regional equities. Short-term market direction will likely depend on whether the US tech momentum persists into trading hours in both the United States and Asia.
