Asian stock markets rose Thursday after higher U.S. inflation stoked expectations of more rate hikes that investors worry will chill economic growth.

Shanghai, Tokyo, Hong Kong and Sydney advanced. Wall Street futures edged lower. Oil prices advanced.

“Growth fears are hitting the markets harder than inflation concerns,” said Stephen Innes of SPI Asset Management in a report. Sydney’s S&P-ASX 200 added 0.4% to 6,646.60 after official data showed employment rose more than expected in June. The Kospi in Seoul edged 0.1% higher to 2,330.74. Traders expect another Fed rate hike this month, probably matching last month's 0.75-percentage-point rise, the biggest in 28 years and three times the usual margin.
