Asian stocks bounce as AI, Mideast jitters recede; dollar firm on Fed bets

Asian equities rose Monday, recouping some of last week's sharp losses driven by a rout in AI-related technology shares. Markets in Korea, Taiwan and Japan led the recovery after Wall Street tech stocks stabilized. The dollar remained firm as traders priced in a higher-for-longer Federal Reserve rate path, while declining oil prices eased inflation concerns. Regional benchmarks advanced across the board, though gains were measured compared to the preceding selloff.

  1. Asian stocks rebound as AI selloff eases, dollar holds gains on Fed bets

    Asian equities rose Monday, recouping some of last week's sharp losses driven by a rout in AI-related technology shares. Markets in Korea, Taiwan and Japan led the recovery after Wall Street tech stocks stabilized. The dollar remained firm as traders priced in a higher-for-longer Federal Reserve rate path, while declining oil prices eased inflation concerns. Regional benchmarks advanced across the board, though gains were measured compared to the preceding selloff.

    Why it matters

    Last week, Asian tech-heavy markets suffered their steepest declines in years on fears of an AI investment bubble and geopolitical tension in the Middle East. The rebound reflects a pause in those pressures, with oil dropping more than 5% after U.S. President Donald Trump signaled a potential de-escalation. Investors are now focused on upcoming U.S. economic data and Federal Reserve decisions for direction on interest rates.
