On September 23rd (Note: "23th" is corrected to "23rd" for grammatical accuracy), Asian stock markets sustained their upward trajectory on Wednesday, fueled by a fervent pursuit of AI-related technology stocks. The South Korean stock market, riding this wave, initially surged nearly 2% at the opening bell, only to later experience a pullback as investors cashed in on their profits. Meanwhile, Taiwan's weighted index, which at one point neared its record peak, concluded the session with a more modest increase of 0.7%. The MSCI AC Asia Pacific (ex-Japan) Index has now notched up six consecutive days of gains. Although the Japanese market was shuttered for a holiday, the Nikkei 225 index futures hovered at 66,580 points, marking a significant leap of approximately 1,560 points from the previous Friday's closing level. Chris Weston, the research chief at Pepperstone, anticipates a robust rally in Japanese stocks once trading resumes tomorrow.
