Asian shares rose on October 6, following a tech fuelled rally that carried the Nasdaq to a record closing level.[^3]

Analysts have tied the underlying US rally to performance in technology and artificial intelligence sectors. Kyle Rodda of Capital.com noted the move was tech led, supported by easing interest rate uncertainty and strong earnings growth from AI names.[^2] Ng Jing Wen of Mizuho Bank stated markets are reflecting confidence that tech and AI earnings can withstand high costs and prevailing interest rates.[^1]

The equity gains occurred as US 10-year and 30-year Treasury yields hit fresh 24-year highs overnight. Yields have climbed steadily since mid-August, driven by inflation and debt concerns.[^4]
