Stocks rallied in Asia on Thursday, putting a gauge of the region’s equities on course to snap five days of declines after US shares climbed on improved consumer confidence and better-than-expected earnings.

The biggest moves were in Hong Kong, where the benchmark index rose about 3%. Technology and property companies led the charge after a slew of comments from regulators on supporting the broader economy and real estate developers.

The 10-year Japanese government bond yield targeted by the BOJ fell to 0.41%, compared with the central bank’s new upper limit of 0.5%. Government bond yields were up in Australia and down in New Zealand. “The Hong Kong and China market may do a bit better,” said Redmond Wong, strategist at Saxo Capital Markets, noting that a lot of profit-taking was now out of the way and there has been some subsiding of fear over Covid.

Oil Drilling Plans Put South African Fishers, Fish Stocks at RiskTotalEnergies, the French energy giant, intends to drill up to ten exploration wells for oil and gas in the deepwater Orange Basin along the west coast, as well as conduct sonar surveys and vertical seismic profiling, among other operations. The explorations will span from 188 kilometres offshore to 340 kilometres from the coast, writes Liezl Human for GroundUp. Several public consultations were held in November from Hout Bay to Port Nolloth. Fishers in the small coastal town of Doringbaai say they are concerned about the impact the oil and gas explorations may have on their livelihoods. Doringbaai was home to about 1,260 people at the time of the 2011 census, but residents say this number has possibly doubled since then. The town relies mostly on fishing and the Doring Bay abalone farm at the harbour. "Oil and gas, and fishing cannot co-exist," says Fabian Mohammed, a fisher woman in Doringbaai. "Either you go into the ocean to catch fish or [you go] for oil and gas. But you can't do both." "Fishing has been our livelihood for generations ... We were born here and we work here," she says. "If they are coming to drill oil, who can guarantee there will be fish left in 15 years time? What kind of future do our kids have in Doringbaai?" Their plight is a snapshot of greater difficulties small-scale fisher face. Other mounting difficulties include declining fish stocks, climate change, the Covid-19 pandemic, and government oversight. Furthermore, fishing quotas imposed by officials have sparked violent protests in some regions.
