Hong Kong's market surged by 6.2% on the back of Beijing's supportive housing policies that revived investor confidence in homebuilders like Longfor and Hang Lung Properties.
While the Hang Seng Index soared, Japan's Nikkei 225 plummeted by 2.18%, impacted by fears surrounding Middle East tensions and their potential to spike oil prices for the energy-importing nation.
In Europe, stocks rose slightly amidst Middle East tensions, with the STOXX Europe 600 showing a gain of 0.13% as defense and energy stocks benefited from emerging situations.
U.S. futures dipped in pre-market trading, largely influenced by investor reactions to regional conflicts and a disappointing quarterly revenue reported by Nike, heightening market caution.
