Global Markets Mixed as Wall Street Nears Records and Asian Shares Vary
Global markets showed mixed movements as Wall Street reached near record highs driven by gains in technology and artificial intelligence stocks, notably Nvidia. Asian shares varied, with Japan's Nikkei rising above 70,000 before retreating amid profit-taking, while South Korea's Kospi declined. Oil prices fluctuated amid Middle East tensions, influencing energy-reliant markets like Japan. Investors remained cautious ahead of key events including US earnings season and Japan's government bond auction, balancing optimism over corporate earnings with concerns over elevated bond yields and geopolitical risks.
