what happened
Asian stock markets are mostly higher on Thursday, following the overnight move on Wall Street. Semiconductor and technology shares are recovering on strong sector results and optimism around AI, while sentiment also improved as worries about a renewed escalation in the Middle East faded.
Still, US inflation data came in hotter than expected, and Fed Governor Christopher Waller said a 50-basis-point hike in December may be necessary. Dallas Fed President Lorie Logan backed at least two further 25-basis-point increases. According to RTTNews, the S&P/ASX 200 is falling, dropping to 9,110.40 and snapping a three-session winning streak. Japan's Nikkei 225 gained 0.76 percent to 61,714.16. Japanese producer prices rose 7.1 percent on the year in October, above the 6.5 percent expected.
why it matters
Hot price data and hawkish Fed signals reinforce expectations of further tightening, which typically weighs on growth stocks. Crude rose to $87 a barrel after tough remarks from Iranian leaders reduced hopes for an early reopening of the Strait of Hormuz.
