China CPI showed a +2.4% increase for the month of April year on year, slightly above consensus and previous at +2.1%, making Shanghai index trade a -0.65% for the day as PBoC easing policies may take now longer than anticipated. Korean Kospi instead rallied more than +1% on the back of the Bank of Korea lowering rates to 2.5% from 2.75%.
Nikkei index found resistance at yesterday's fresh almost 5-year highs shy of the 13400 points ask line, still adding +0.24% profits for the day so far, while Gold has had a similar session than yesterday, first moving lower for then jumping to fresh session highs at $1478 in the spot market, to end just as it started at last $1474. Oil remained steady around the $96 mark.
