Asian stocks started the week mixed after oil gained to the highest in more than three years and the dollar fluctuated close to its recent high. Shares pared earlier losses in Japan while climbing in Australia and Hong Kong. S&P 500 Index futures advanced. The greenback steadied and the yen pared gains as traders returned from Golden Week holidays. Oil pushed through $70 a barrel for the first time since November 2014 as investors braced for a re-imposition of some U.S. sanctions on Iran. The U.S. 10-year Treasury yield ticked higher.
