Oil nudges higher as Iran-U.S. talks loom amid mixed signals

Oil rose over 1% as Trump touted ongoing Iran-U.S. talks even as Tehran denied direct negotiations, with Brent near $85 and WTI around $81, signaling energy market volatility amid Middle East risk. The broader picture featured mixed Asia-Pacific trading, a plan to raise up to $3.3B by selling LIC stake in India, yen intervention, and after-hours moves in Palantir and Snap, while stock futures remained flat after a strong prior session.

Oil climbs and markets wobble as U.S.-Iran tensions spike

Global equities fell as fresh U.S. strikes on Iran raised Middle East tensions, sending oil prices higher (WTI ~$90.65, Brent ~$96) and weighing on Asia-Pacific and European stock indices. Korea’s Kospi, Japan’s Nikkei, Hong Kong’s Hang Seng and the pan-European Stoxx 600 moved lower, while China showed mixed moves. Notable movers included Chinese EV maker Nio and LG Energy Solution in Korea, which gained on launches and new deals. Investors also watched Fed officials signal inflation as the top priority ahead of a key PCE price index release.

Asia-Pacific equities gained as Wall Street closed at a record high and Brent crude climbed to about $105 amid U.S.–Iran tensions after Trump blocked the Strait of Hormuz. Japan’s Nikkei 225 surged 2.68% to 63,339.07 (Topix +1%), with core inflation cooling to 1.4% in April, easing BOJ rate-hike expectations. Korea’s Kospi +0.41% and Kosdaq up sharply, Hong Kong’s Hang Seng +1.03%, and China’s CSI 300 +1.26%; India’s Nifty 50 and Sensex also higher. U.S. 10-year yields eased to around 4.57% and the 30-year yield nudged lower. Moody’s warned that longer-term borrowing costs could rise due to defense spending and expansive AI/data-center investment, underscoring a still-challenging global financing backdrop.

Asia-Pacific equities were mixed after President Trump said the U.S.-Iran ceasefire is on ‘massive life support,’ with Japan’s Nikkei 225 higher while Korea’s Kospi fell. Investors also digested BOJ minutes suggesting rate hikes and a rise in 10-year yields, as Hong Kong gained modestly and U.S. stock futures pointed to small advances amid firmer oil prices and ongoing inflation concerns.
