Asian markets rise on US inflation data and economic optimism

Asian stock markets started the week positively due to better-than-expected US inflation data and the avoidance of a government shutdown in the United States.

The Shanghai stock exchange increased by 0.2 percent to 3,374.99 points, while the index of major companies in Shanghai and Shenzhen rose by 0.7 percent to 3,956.04 points.

In Tokyo, the Nikkei index gained 0.9 percent, reaching 39,048.16 points, supported by a recovery on Wall Street. Technology stocks, such as Advantest and Tokyo Electron, contributed significantly to the gains.

Analysts believe that the Federal Reserve's inflation optimism has been tempered by the recent increase in core inflation and concerns over tariffs and immigration restrictions. JPMorgan's Michael Feroli predicts a potential 75 basis points rate cut next year, with a pause in January and subsequent cuts quarterly thereafter.
