Asian tech stocks rose on Thursday after Nvidia’s earnings beat eased concerns about slowing AI momentum. The company reported a 73% jump in quarterly revenue, driven largely by its data center business.
Japan’s Nikkei 225 surged more than 1% to a fresh record high as it broke 59,000 for the first time, extending its winning streak as investors continued betting on the Takaichi trade. The broader Topix also hit a new peak after the government appointed two dovish central bank board members.
Across the region, markets were mostly higher. South Korea’s Kospi and Australia’s ASX 200 gained, while Hong Kong and mainland Chinese indexes declined.
U.S. stocks almost climbed afterhours as Nvidia’s results lifted sentiment. The three major US indices had already advanced higher on Wednesday, with the Dow Jones rising 0.6% to 49,456, Nasdaq 100 gaining 1.8% and the S&P500 jumping 1.1% inching closer to its previous record high from January.
Precious metal also had a strong trading session as Gold rebounded toward the $5,200 level during the Asian session, attracting buyers for a second straight day as safe haven demand remained strong. Silver broke above $90 an ounce for the first time in 3 weeks as it reached $91.30 before finsing resistance at the $90 psychological level.
Support for precious metals comes from ongoing uncertainty around President Donald Trump’s shifting tariff policies, including newly imposed 10% import tariffs that may rise to 15%, keeping investors cautious. At the same time, geopolitical tensions remain elevated as the U.S. and Iran prepare for another round of talks amid concerns of potential military escalation.
A modest pullback in the U.S. dollar has also supported gold, with markets still pricing in possible Fed rate cuts despite a hawkish outlook. Combined trade risks and geopolitical uncertainty continue to underpin bullish momentum in the precious metal.
