Asian shares advanced with US and Europe futures on Thursday, extending a rally on Wall Street after Federal Reserve chair Jerome Powell said the central bank had made progress in its battle against inflation.

A benchmark of Asian stocks climbed as much as 1%, with Hong Kong-listed technology companies among the top performers. The picture was more mixed in Japanese and mainland China markets.

Positioning in US swaps markets assumes the Fed is getting closer to cutting rates as traders bet that economic conditions are likely to keep it from the additional rate increases that policymakers still anticipate. “US sector performance was consistent with the big rally in fixed income across the curve, which for Asia-Pacific should support duration proxies like tech and soft landing beneficiaries like consumer discretionary,” said Chamath De Silva, senior portfolio manager for BetaShares Holdings.
