what happened
Asian stock markets traded mostly higher on Monday. Taiwan, Japan and South Korea led the gains as semiconductor shares rebounded after last week's sell-off. Some traders also moved to buy at lower prices after the recent weakness, while investors watched ongoing peace talks aimed at ending hostilities in the Middle East, according to RTTNews via dpa-AFX.
In Japan, the Nikkei 225 jumped 3.4% to above 59,400, snapping a four-session losing streak. Taiwan rose 6.2% and South Korea 1.8%. Australia's S&P/ASX 200 gained about 0.2%, supported by miners and energy stocks. The U.S. dollar traded in the lower 158 yen range.
On Wall Street on Friday, the Dow fell 0.5%, the S&P 500 gained 0.3% and the Nasdaq rose 1.1%. European markets fell, with Germany's DAX down 1.9%. WTI for December delivery rose 0.51% to $90.98 a barrel after U.S. President Donald Trump declined to rule out renewed attacks on Iran.
why it matters
The rebound in Japanese and Taiwanese chip stocks suggests investors are partly rebuilding positions after a recent sell-off. Renewed military risk around Iran continues to support oil, which matters for energy stocks and inflation expectations.
