Asian stocks rise before Powell's announcement

Dollar rises against euro and sterling 

Asian stocks rose today, led by technology stocks. Japan's Topix index rose 0.4 percent, China's Shanghai index rose 0.1 percent, South Korea's Kospi rose 0.5 percent, and Hong Kong's Hang Seng rose 0.7 percent.

While the US stock markets rose yesterday, the S&P 500 and Nasdaq futures indexes were flat. Futures indexes in Europe are up more than 0.5 percent.

The dollar rose against the euro and sterling on anticipation that Powell will signal signs of a tightening plan.

Fed officials have come to the fore with hawkish statements in recent days. In his speech today, Powell is expected to give the message that interest rate hikes will continue to combat high inflation.

Other Fed officials also gave hawkish messages at the Jackson Hole meeting. Kansas City Fed President Esther George said rates could rise as high as 4%. Markets are divided on a 50 or 75 basis point gain in September.

The Dollar Spot index rose 0.1 percent, while the euro was at 0.99 against the dollar. The offshore yuan fell 0.1 percent and the Japanese yen fell 0.1 percent.

While the 10-year bond yield in the USA rose to 3.04%, oil is preparing to complete the week with an increase. Gold and Bitcoin are down this morning.
