As of 10:30 a.m. (Vietnam time), in Japan, the Nikkei 225 index increased 1.9% to 49,605.57 points.
In China, the Hang Seng index in Hong Kong rose 0.6% to 26,054.70 points, while the Shanghai Composite index in Shanghai also inched up 0.2% to 3,876.05 points.
The rally also spread to markets in Seoul, Sydney, Singapore, Taipei (China) and Wellington.
One factor that continues to dominate market sentiment is the Fed's policy outlook. Bets on a rate cut at its December meeting jumped this week after several key members backed a third straight cut as concerns about the labor market outweighed inflation.
In addition, a series of new reports on the world's largest economy have provided more basis for those calling for the Fed to loosen monetary policy. Specifically, data from the human resources management services company ADP showed that private employers cut an average of 13,500 jobs per week in the four weeks ending November 8. US retail sales also increased more slowly than expected in September 2025, while the Conference Board's consumer confidence index fell to a seven-month low.
Expert Stephen Innes from asset management company SPI Asset Management commented that although the newly released data is somewhat old due to the US government shutdown of more than 40 days, they still show signs of support for the Fed to loosen monetary policy.
Investors’ enthusiasm was also reinforced by the news that US President Donald Trump’s top economic adviser, Kevin Hassett, is a leading candidate to be the next Fed chairman. According to observers, Mr. Hassett is considered to have a viewpoint that is in line with President Donald Trump’s desire for low interest rates.
In the domestic market, at 10:45 a.m. on November 26, the VN-Index increased by 6.87 points (0.41%) to 1,667.23 points. The HNX-Index increased by 4.09 points (1.59%) to 261.39 points.
