Asia-Pacific markets set to open mostly higher as investors parse Fed's latest comments

Sunset scene of light trails traffic speeds through an intersection in Gangnam center business district of Seoul at Seoul city, South Korea Mongkol Chuewong | Moment | Getty Images Asia-Pacific markets are set to open mostly higher on Wednesday as investors digest the latest comments from U.S. Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell. Powell said Tuesday that the central bank would have already cut interest rates if it weren't for U.S. President Donald Trump's tariff initiatives. Japan's benchmark Nikkei 225 was set to open lower, with the futures contract in Chicago at 39,665 while its counterpart in Osaka last traded at 39,570, against the index's last close of 39,986.33. Australia's S&P/ASX 200 is set to open higher with futures tied to the benchmark at 8,558 compared to its last close of 8,541.1. Futures for Hong Kong's Hang Seng index stood at 24,170, higher than its last close of 24,072.28. U.S. stock futures were little changed early Asian hours after investors began the second half of the year with a reduced appetite for technology stocks. Overnight stateside, the three major averages closed mixed. The S&P 500 inched down 0.11% and closed at 6,198.01, while the Nasdaq Composite lost 0.82% to settle at 20,202.89. The blue-chip Dow was the outlier, gaining 400.17 points, or 0.91%, to end at 44,494.94. — CNBC's Sean Conlon and Tanaya Macheel contributed to this report.

Kevin Mohatt | Reuters Although Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell said last week that he expects policymakers to remain on hold until there's more clarity on the impact of President Donald Trump's tariffs on prices, the central bank may look to cut interest rates if there's a downturn in the labor market. "Occam's razor suggests that inflation is already stuck above target, with risks to the upside from tariffs over the next several months," wrote economist Aditya Bhave in a Tuesday note. "The Fed might still cut rates this year if there is compelling evidence of labor market deterioration. But the lack of progress on inflation raises the bar for cuts." Additionally, Bhave anticipates there could be much more impact to the U.S. economy from tariffs ahead. "An optimistic take on the data would be that the pickup in goods inflation reflects some preemptive price hikes ahead of the tariffs," he continued. "Still, there is most likely a lot more tariff-driven inflation in the pipeline." — Sean Conlon

Asia's Strong July Track Record to Be Put to Test by Tariff Risk

A seasonal lift for Asian equities in July may falter this year as tariff and macroeconomic concerns dampen sentiment. Markets are bracing for heightened volatility ahead of the July 9 deadline for countries to cut trade deals with the US. Uncertainty over the outcome of these negotiations may pose a hurdle for regional shares to maintain an average return of 1.36% for July — the second-best performing month of the year — over the past decade.
