Japan’s Nikkei Stock Average (+0.55%), South Korea’s Kospi (+0.79%), Australia’s S&P/ASX 200 (+0.95%), Hong Kong’s Hang Seng (+1.50%) edged higher, following the market mood triggered by news of action to be taken by the ECB/EFSF to tackle the debt crisis and pressure over Spain and Italy.
Futures for the German DAX 30 and French CAC 40 are signaling a lower open by -0.40% in a corrective movement from Friday’s rally.
