Asia Stocks Post Modest Gain, Weak Yen Fuels Japan Rally

from Bloomberg Daybreak: Asia Edition · host Bloomberg

Asian shares posted a modest gain at the open, while Japanese equities extended their record-breaking run fueled by a weaker yen. For more on what is moving the markets in the region, we speak to Abhishek Vishnoi, Senior Reporter for Asia Equities. Plus - Japanese Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi's reported plan for a snap election fueled a rally in stocks while pushing down bonds and driving the yen deeper into the intervention-risk zone. For more on the outlook on Japanese markets, we heard from Zuhair Khan, Senior Portfolio Manager at UBP. He spoke to Bloomberg's Paul Allen and Avril Hong. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
