Sensex rises 369 points to 84,997; optimism over a potential US-China trade deal and strong global cues boost market sentiment
Asian shares rallied and US futures jumped Monday, with Japan's benchmark Nikkei 225 topping 50,000 for the first time. Work on trade deals that might alleviate friction between the US, China and other major trading partners contributed to upbeat sentiment as US President Donald Trump visited Malaysia for a summit of Southeast Asian nations where he reached preliminary trade agreements with Malaysia, Thailand, Cambodia and Vietnam. A trade deal between the United States and China was drawing closer, officials from the world's two largest economies said Sunday as they reached an initial consensus for Trump and Chinese leader Xi Jinping to try to finalise during a high-stakes meeting later in the week. This isn't just photo-op diplomacy. Behind the showmanship, Washington and Beijing's top trade lieutenants have quietly mapped out a framework that might, just might, keep the world's two largest economies from tearing up the field again, Stephen Innes of SPI Asset Management said in a

SINGAPORE (Reuters) -Asian stocks limped towards the end of the week on a shaky footing on Friday as declines on Wall Street lingered into early trading, while commodity markets took a breather after their recent charge higher. Regional markets remain on track for one of their best years in a decade, firmly outstripping gains for U.S. counterparts as President Donald Trump's package of economic policies and tariffs prompts a surge of orders across the region to meet booming demand for AI-linked technology hardware. The U.S. trading session marked the point where a number of "well-subscribed, high-momentum trades" including gold, silver, crypto, and much of the S&P 500 "finally showed signs of exhaustion," said Chris Weston, head of research at Pepperstone Group Ltd in Melbourne. MSCI's broadest index of Asia-Pacific shares outside Japan fluctuated between gains and losses, last down 0.2% as its gains for the week hung in the balance, after U.S. stocks ended the previous .
Shares were mostly lower in Asia on Wednesday after US stocks sank to their first loss in eight days, losing momentum after the price of gold topped $4,000 per ounce for the first time. The price of gold was up $25.40 at $4,029.60 an ounce. US futures and oil prices also advanced.

The dollar rose to 152.53 yen from 151.90 yen, while the euro slipped to $1.1621 from $1.1659. Tokyo's benchmark Nikkei 225 edged 0.1% higher to 48,002.18. Takaichi, who the ruling Liberal Democrats chose as their leader last weekend, is expected to increase spending and to advocate for easier credit, possibly slowing efforts by the Bank of Japan to raise its key interest rate. It has remained near zero for years, even as inflation has exceeded its target of about 2%, outpacing wage increases. While the economic c
