Asian stocks rose to a fresh seven-week high on Thursday, lifted by encouraging early results from a COVID-19 treatment trial, though bonds and currencies held cautious ranges ahead of a European Central Bank meeting later in the day.

Anthony Fauci, the top U.S. infectious disease official, said Gilead’s antiviral remdesivir will become the standard of care for COVID-19 after early results from a trial seemed to show it helped speed recovery.

Markets in Hong Kong and South Korea were closed for public holidays.
