Optimism before Greek vote lifts Asian stocks
Dated Posted: 2011-06-29
SINGAPORE | Tue Jun 28, 2011 9:14pm EDT
- Asian shares rose, with Tokyo stocks hitting a seven-week high, and the euro clung to gains on Wednesday ahead of a vote in the Greek parliament that investors hope will approve an austerity program demanded by international lenders.
Optimism that the unpopular package of tax increases and spending cuts will be approved by legislators boosted demand for riskier assets on Tuesday, pushing world stocks up 1 percent .MIWD00000PUS and oil prices up more than 2 percent.
The package, which has provoked violent demonstrations on the streets of Athens but won crucial political support on Tuesday, is needed to secure a new tranche of EU/IMF funds to prevent Greece becoming the first developed nation in more than 60 years to default on its debts.
Japan's Nikkei .N225 rose more than 1 percent and MSCI's index of Asia Pacific shares outside Japan .MIAPJ0000PUS gained 0.7 percent.
The euro bought around $1.4350, having risen close to $1.44 in U.S. trading hours, well above this week's trough around $1.41.
The single currency was also supported by comments from European Central Bank President Jean-Claude Trichet that were interpreted as signaling a July interest rate rise.
U.S. crude oil was steady just below $93 a barrel, after rising sharply on Tuesday, and spot gold edged up to around $1,504 an ounce.
