Most Asian stocks rose and European and U.S. futures pushed higher Friday as investors weighed better-than-expected Chinese manufacturing data against uncertainty about an interim U.S.-China trade deal. Treasuries held their mid-week gains ahead of Friday’s American jobs and manufacturing data.
Equities in Japan pared losses, while shares in Hong Kong and China rose after the Caixin manufacturing gauge unexpectedly climbed. Equities in Seoul shrugged off the latest plunge in South Korean exports. Sentiment had weakened earlier and the S&P 500 slipped overnight after Bloomberg reportedthat Chinese officials have warned they won’t budge on the thorniest trade issues. Negotiators are expected to hold a call Friday. The yen remained near a three-week high.
