Asian shares are mostly higher and Japan's Nikkei tops 70,000 before BOJ rate hike
Asian shares mostly rose with Japan's Nikkei 225 briefly topping 70,000 before the Bank of Japan raised its key interest rate to 1%, a 25-basis-point hike to its highest level in three decades. The U.S.-Iran tentative deal eased oil prices, while AI-related U.S. stocks like Micron, AMD, and Nvidia surged. Treasury yields declined as lower oil prices reduced pressure on central banks to raise rates.
