16 Oct 2025 Evaluate

Asian markets traded mostly higher in early deals on Thursday, driven by the risk appetite in the market amidst optimism over more dovish Federal Reserve monetary policy, robust corporate earnings, and strong growth signals from major Asian economies. Better-than-expected results from semiconductor equipment supplier ASML kindled investor sentiments. Japan's Nikkei index surged, extending gains from the previous session buoyed by news of a pro-stimulus candidate, Sanae Takaichi, becoming the country's next prime minister. A softer yen also supported export-oriented stocks.

Nikkei 225 soared by 589.33 points or 1.24% to 48,262.00, Jakarta Composite up by 74.55 points or 0.93% to 8,125.73, KOSPI Index increased by 74.48 points or 2.04% to 3,731.76, Taiwan Weighted climbed by 400.82 points or 1.47% to 27,676.53, and FTSE Bursa Malaysia higher by 2.94 points or 0.18% to 1,614.49.

On the flip side, Straits Times down by 16.81 points or 0.38% to 4,351.61, Hang Seng slipped by 186.60 points 0.72% to 25,724.00, Shanghai Composite dipped by 7.61 points or 0.19% to 3,904.60.
