Asian Stock Market: Traces firmer S&P 500 Futures amid sluggish yields, off in Japan

Softer US inflation expectations, upbeat data and US President Joe Biden’s hopes of no imminent nuclear war favors the sentiment.improves in the Asia-Pacific zone amid early Thursday, despite being off in Japan, as traders reassess the hawkish Fed concerns and the geopolitical fears amid a quiet session. Also likely to have favored the mildly upbeat sentiment could be the latest retreat in the US inflation expectations and easing fears of recession.

On a broader front, S&P 500 Futures bounce off the monthly low to print mild gains around 4,020 while the yields are mostly unchanged amid Japan’s holiday, following a retreat from the three-month high the previous day. That said, recently firmer global activity numbers and comments from the key central bank officials, mainly from the West, have raised hopes that the recession is less likely to happen. Even if it does in a certain part of the world, the effects will be mild and short-lived.

It should be noted that the latest Federal Open Market Committee’s Monetary Policy Meeting Minutes stated that all participants agreed more rate hikes are needed to achieve the inflation target. The same initially triggered the market’s risk-off mood before the details suggested that the policymakers also discussed going easy on the rate hike trajectory, which in turn highlights softer inflation expectations as the key concern for the recent improvement in mood.
