Looking local as US macro, Nvidia shadows linger – Aug 28

The mood across Asian markets on Wednesday is likely to be one of caution, for two main reasons that should keep markets in relatively narrow ranges – lingering concern over the health of the U.S. economy, and Nvidia’s earnings later in the day.

U.S. and world stocks climbed higher on Tuesday but only slightly, while the dollar dipped again and Treasury yields were little-changed across the curve. None of that offers investors in Asia much to run with on Wednesday.

Given the lack of obvious global catalysts, regional events may take on added weight on Wednesday.
