亞洲市場漲勢戛然而止

亞洲市場連續上漲了一個星期，終於在週四停下了勢頭，投資者都想知道，英國的利率決策是否會阻止股票進一步上漲。

日本日經指數的表現仍然最為突出，單日上漲0.4%，本週内上漲7.7%。投資者希望財政刺激政策能夠驅使基準指數回到正常軌道。

遊戲公司任天堂的股價仍在上漲之中，現實增強遊戲“皮卡丘Go”發佈後，公司股價暴漲9.8%。這使得任天堂股價在一週内上漲了50%。任天堂持有少數現實增強遊戲的股份。

但亞洲市場的增長勢頭正逐漸消散。英國貨幣政策委員會將在週四亞洲市場收盤後發佈決策，所以投資者們都提高了警惕。

盛寶資本市場高級銷售員Tareck Horchani表示：“此次會議極有可能決定未來的市場走勢。市場價格將會下調。”

在其他亞太地區，澳大利亞標普200指數上漲0.2%，韓國綜合指數下降0.2%，香港恒生指數下跌0.1%。上證綜合指數下跌0.3%，新加坡海峽時報指數下跌0.1%。

在原油價格下跌後，香港、中國大陸及澳大利亞地區的能源股票皆有下滑。美國原油價格驟跌，突破兩個月以來的最低點，而此前美國原油庫存及石油產品的儲備也突破了新高。佈倫特原油在亞洲市場的交易價為每桶46.67美元。

與此同時，馬來西亞七年以來首次削減了隔夜利息，股票立刻開始下跌。馬來西亞交易所富時KLCI指數下跌了0.3%。

在其他的市場，亞洲某些國家的政府債券呈上漲趨勢，這也是全球央行採取新的寬松政策的預兆。澳大利亞十年期債券的收益下滑至1.92%，而馬來西亞十年期債券收益則下滑至3.56%。債券價格下跌，收益也隨之減少。

Asian market rally grinds to a halt

A week-long rally across Asian stocks hit the brakes Thursday, with investors waiting to see whether the Bank of England’s interest-rate decision would make or break further equity gains.

Japan’s Nikkei Stock Average NIK, +0.84%   remained the biggest outperformer in the region, gaining 0.4% to add to its 7.7% ascent this week. Investors’ hopes for fiscal-stimulus policies helped set the benchmark on track to scoring its best weekly performance so far this year.

Shares of videogame maker Nintendo Co. 7974, +18.32%   continued to soar, rising 9.8% on the craze around its “Pokémon Go” app. That brings Nintendo’s total gain this week to more 50%. Nintendo has a minority stake in the augmented-reality game.

But the euphoria in Asian equities from earlier in the week mostly dissipated on Thursday as investors stayed more cautious before the Bank of England’s Monetary Policy Committee meets after Asian markets close.

The meeting “will probably will be the deciding factor on how the markets will react later today,” saidTareck Horchani, a senior sales trader at Saxo Capital Markets in Singapore. “The market is pricing a cut.”

In the rest of the Asia-Pacific region, Australia’s S&P/ASX 200 XJO, +0.31%  was up 0.2%, Korea’s Kospi SEU, +0.02%   was down 0.2% and Hong Kong’s Hang Seng Index HSI, +0.12%   edged down 0.1%. China’s Shanghai Composite Index lost 0.3%, and Singapore’s Straits Times Index STI, -0.12%   was off 0.1%.

Energy shares in Hong Kong, China and Australia sank after crude oil prices slumped overnight. U.S. oil prices plummeted to a two-month low after data showed U.S. inventories of crude oil and refined products were at a record high. Brent was recently trading at $46.67 per barrel in early Asia trade.

Meanwhile, Malaysian stocks fell after the country’s central bank on Wednesday unexpectedly cut the overnight policy rate for the first time in seven years. The FTSE Bursa Malaysia KLCI was last down 0.3%.

In other markets, some sovereign Asian government bonds rallied, in another sign of investors’ anticipation of fresh policy easing by global central banks. The yield on the 10-year Australian note slipped to 1.92%, while the yield on the 10-year Malaysian note sank to 3.56%. Yields sink when bond prices rise.
