U.S. Record Highs Lift Asia, with Malaysia’s KLCI Leading the Region
Everyone, global stock markets have been in full “red-packet rain” mode lately! Last Friday, all three major U.S. stock indexes hit fresh all-time highs, and that hot money-making atmosphere quickly crossed the oceans and completely ignited today’s Asian markets, sending nearly everything into rally mode.
Let’s look straight at the Asia-Pacific “report card,” where the gains are shining across the board 👇
Malaysia (KLCI): Surged a strong 1.02%, closing firmly at 1,686.54 points, making it one of the top performers in the Asia-Pacific region today. A real show of strength for Malaysia!
Japan’s Nikkei 225: Put on an eye-catching performance, jumping 1.61% with powerful momentum.
Mainland China: Also joined the rally. The Shanghai Composite rose 0.92%, while the Shenzhen Component did even better, climbing 1.15% — both indexes pushing higher together.
South Korea, Vietnam, and others: Not to be left behind, most gained more than 0.6%, with hardly any markets in the region showing losses.
All in all, the U.S. market’s “leading charge” effect is in full force, and Asian stocks have followed in step. This broad rally across the region is truly exhilarating to watch!
