Asian stocks extend a global rally and the dollar sinks after Federal Reserve boss Jerome Powell signals a rate hike slowdown

Global markets reacted positively to comments by Federal Reserve chief Jerome Powell who said it"makes sense to moderate the pace of our rate increases as we approach the level of restraint that will be sufficient to bring inflation down"Asian stocks have extended a global rally and the dollar sank after Federal Reserve boss Jerome Powell flagged a rate hike slowdown.

However, Powell did say policy would need to remain tight "for some time" to restore price stability, echoing comments from other Fed officials who suggested there might not be any cuts until 2024.
