Business and finance news from the Asia-Pacific.

Oil climbed to the highest level in more than a month and bonds fell as US and Iranian attacks escalated, renewing inflation concerns. Stocks stabilized after a technology-led selloff rattled markets last week.

Treasury 10-year futures slipped 7/32, with trading in the cash market shut during Asian hours Monday because of a holiday in Japan. Government bonds in Australia and New Zealand also declined on concern that higher oil prices will stoke inflation.

Equities were mixed. Nasdaq 100 futures rose 0.2% after Friday’s selloff, as Moonshot AI told investors it plans to go public within six months after its latest model challenged perceptions of US leadership in artificial intelligence. MSCI’s Asia Pacific equity index was little changed, while South Korea’s Kospi index fell 2.8% as traders returned following a holiday on Friday. For a look at the markets, Bloomberg TV Host Avril Hong spoke to Homin Lee, Senior Macro Strategist at Lombard Odier.

Brent rose as much as 3.8% to $91.42 a barrel, the highest level since June, with back-and-forth strikes that have expanded beyond military targets. For an outlook of how the oil story is impacting the Asia-Pacific, Bloomberg TV Host Paul ALlen spoke to Illiana Jain, International Ecnomist at Westpac Banking Corporation.
