Asia stocks rally on Wall Street strength, gold hits record high
Asian markets advance on U.
Asian equities climbed broadly today following a solid U.S. rally fueled by gains in AI and semiconductor names. Japan’s Nikkei advanced ~0.8%, South Korea and Australia rallied, while Taiwan awaited TSMC earnings. Markets shrugged off U.S.–China trade tensions for now. Meanwhile, gold surged to a fresh high over $4,234 an ounce as investors hedged against uncertainty. The U.S. dollar weakened further, particularly versus the yen and franc, helping Asian currencies and equity flows. Oil also ticked higher amid geopolitical optimism.
