Asian stocks rise on Wall Street rally, Alphabet earnings, and trade optimism

Asian stocks surged, mirroring Wall Street’s rally, fueled by Alphabet’s strong earnings and renewed trade optimism under President Trump. Despite Nissan’s profit warning, its shares rose on turnaround hopes. Positive sentiment was bolstered by potential US-South Korea trade understanding and anticipation of earlier Federal Reserve interest rate cuts, even amidst US-China trade talk uncertainties.
