🌍 India / Asia Angle

A US tech-led market rally typically boosts sentiment in Asian tech-heavy markets including Japan's Nikkei, South Korea's KOSPI, and Taiwan's TAIEX when US futures open higher. Indian IT exporters like Infosys and TCS may also see positive spillover given their revenue correlation with US Big Tech spending.

🌊 Ripple Effects

▸US tech stocks — bullish bias as markets surged despite mixed earnings, signalling resilient investor appetite
▸Asian equity futures — likely positive open following Wall Street gains, particularly for semiconductor and software names
▸Safe-haven assets (gold, bonds) — potential mild pressure as risk-on sentiment dominated the US session

🔭 What to Watch Next

PRO

▸Remaining S&P 500 Q1 earnings reports in early May — any further Big Tech misses could reverse the rally
▸US April Non-Farm Payrolls (NFP) release and Fed commentary for signals on rate trajectory affecting equity valuations
▸Asian market opens on May 1 — watch Nikkei 225 and KOSPI futures for confirmation of US risk-on spillover
