Asian stocks and US equity-index futures advanced on optimism that the US-Iran talks could lead to a peace deal. However, concerns over a prolonged closure of the Strait of Hormuz have unsettled investors, pushing bond yields higher recently amid fears high oil prices will fuel inflation and force central banks to keep interest rates elevated. Even so, traders have largely brushed aside those risks since the war began in late February, propelling stocks to record highs on renewed enthusiasm for the artificial intelligence trade. We speak to Paul Dobson, Bloomberg's Executive Editor for Asia Markets.
And we go to Shanghai, where the JPMorgan Global China Summit is underway. Bloomberg's Haslinda Amin spoke to Benjamin Vuchot, The Hongkong and Shanghai Hotels CEO about his company's business outlook.
