Asian Stock Markets Started the New Day with a Gain
Stocks on Asian stock exchanges headed for gains in Thursday's trading.
Asian stock markets started the new day with a gain. The gains in the markets after the 1.52 percent interest rate in the 10-year bond auction organized by the US Treasury Department continue to affect Asian stocks this morning.
The CSI 300 Index is gaining in value strongly today, after the state-backed funds, which are described as the National Team in China, are able to reduce the losses to a limited extent, although they have started to buy in order to "stabilize" the market. In the Asia Pacific Region, gains led by technology shares in South Korea are leading the way.
