Market sentiment in the Asia-Pacific region remains slightly upbeat during early Tuesday as traders juggle between the recession woes and the Reserve Bank of Australia’s (RBA) inaction. Also restricting the trading sentiment could be the mixed concerns about the Sino-American ties, as well as the US holiday.
Amid these plays, MSCI’s index of the Asia-Pacific shares outside Japan rises 0.30% whereas Japan’s Nikkei 225 bucks the trend with 0.90% intraday fall, so far, to 33,461 heading into Tuesday’s European session.
It’s worth noting that Australian equities recently witnessed a boost from the Reserve Bank of Australia’s (RBA) no rate hike decision, which in turn propels the benchmark ASX to intraday high of near 7,285, up half a percent by the press time. That said, Australia’s 10-year Treasury bond yields dropped nearly 45 basis points (bps) to 3.97% after the RBA announcements.
On a border front, S&P500 Futures retreated even as Wall Street managed to post minor gains whereas US two-year Treasury bond yields rose to 4.93% while the 10-year counterpart printed mild gains around 3.86% by the end of Monday’s North American trading session.
It’s worth noting that the Chinese stocks are mildly positive as US Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen is in Beijing for diplomatic talks whereas South Korea’s KOSPI drops 0.30% intraday as the Bank of Korea (BoK) flagged inflation woes earlier in the day.
Elsewhere, New Zealand’s NZX50 traces its Aussie counterpart while posting nearly 0.30% intraday gains but Indian equities remain lackluster around the record tops after an upbeat day.
Moving on, share traders should pay attention to the risk catalysts for clear directions amid the US holiday and light calendar elsewhere
