Shares climbed in Asia on Tuesday after Wall Street benchmarks clawed back some losses from their worst week since early December.
Tokyo’s Nikkei 225 index JP:NIK added 0.2% and the Kospi KR:180721 in Seoul advanced 0.8%.
Economies around the world have remained more resilient than feared, with China loosening its business-damaging anti-COVID restrictions and Europe avoiding a worst-case energy crisis. But they likely mean a longer spell of higher interest rates. The heightened expectations for rates have been most evident in the bond market, where yields have shot higher in recent weeks.
The 10-year Treasury yield dipped to 3.92% from 3.95% late Friday. That yield helps set rates for mortgages and other important loans. The two-year yield, which moves more on expectations for the Fed, slipped to 4.79% from 4.81%. It’s near its highest level since 2007.
