Asian Stocks Set for Rebound as Oil Prices Ease: Markets Wrap

Asian equity markets rebounded after three sessions of losses as easing oil market concerns helped temper a bond selloff. Gains came despite ongoing worries regarding a war with Iran. This recovery follows a period of decline driven by rising oil prices, Middle East tensions, and climbing bond yields. Investors are now shifting focus toward upcoming US inflation data, specifically the PCE reading, to determine future market direction. While some regional benchmarks rose, others remained mixed as oil prices fluctuated near recent lows.
