Yields gained on longer-dated government bonds fell, and then rose. “The steepening of the yield curve is a welcome addition, particularly on a day when the market is rising,” Keator added.Japan’s Nikkei 225 futures added 0.09%, while the Nikkei 225 index closed the overnight session down 0.35%Hong Kong’s Hang Seng index futures rose 0.05%.

Stocks also rose on news that Abbott Laboratories won U.S. marketing authorization for a COVID-19 portable antigen test that can deliver results in 15 minutes and will sell for $5. Abbott shares rose 7.9%.
