what happened
According to Reuters, Asian stocks climbed on Tuesday after AI bellwether Anthropic filed for a US IPO, disclosing a steep loss alongside rapid revenue growth. South Korea's KOSPI jumped more than 3.9%, its steepest one-day gain since early February, although it is still down 17% in October. Japan's Nikkei rose 1.9%, and MSCI's Asia-Pacific index excluding Japan added 0.9%.
Meta Platforms plans to raise up to $95 billion in its largest equity fundraising ever. More than a third of S&P 500 companies report this week, including Alphabet, Microsoft and Amazon. Economists expect the Fed, ECB and Bank of Japan to hold rates steady.
why it matters
Investors want evidence that heavy AI spending will pay off and that the US economy can handle higher rates. Brent fell 0.7% to $114.95 a barrel, and the 10-year Treasury yield held near 4.99%. The yen remains the currency of choice for havens, trading at 157.61 per dollar before the BoJ decision.
market impact
Asian and US tech stocks: Anthropic's filing and earnings set the tone for AI shares; yen and bonds react to rate expectations.
