Most Asian stocks rose Friday and the dollar held a drop after cyclicals led Wall Street to a record high ahead of a U.S. jobs report that will shape views on the outlook for Federal Reserve monetary policy.
MSCI Inc.’s Asia-Pacific gauge climbed for a sixth day, the longest streak since January. Prime Minister Yoshihide Suga’s plan to resign sent Japanese shares to a three-decade high on expectations that his successor may boost stimulus.
Chinese technology stocks fell, with investors continuing to weigh Beijing’s regulatory crackdown. U.S. futures advanced and European contracts were steady after energy shares helped the S&P 500 to an all-time high. A global stock index was also at an unprecedented level.
The payrolls report will color expectations about when the Fed might taper pandemic-era stimulus and how long it can wait before hiking interest-rates. The U.S. probably added 725,000 jobs in August -- a more moderate pace versus the prior two months, but stronger than early 2021. The U.S. 10-year Treasury yield edged up and the dollar was near a four-week low.
