Asia in the positive after ECB
FXstreet.com (Barcelona) - Asia-Pacific local share markets are mostly all sitting on big gains following a positive day overseas in stocks, with US futures right now printing fresh session highs.
Markets advanced today on hope of low financial costs will keep on for a while, as ECB Draghi suggested in the latest central bank meeting Thursday. The Nikkei index is up more than +1.3% at the moment, while Hang-Seng gains +1.64%, Australian ASX +1.07% and Korean Kospi +0.25%. The discordant note comes from the Shanghai index that is down -0.61%.
