Asia-Pacific Markets Rise as Nvidia Hits Record High; ASX 200 Up 0.4%, Nikkei 225 and KOSPI Each Up 1.1%

Asia-Pacific markets are poised to open mostly higher, buoyed by a tech rally on Wall Street. The Nasdaq Composite's performance was driven by Nvidia, which reclaimed its status as the largest company and closed at a record high. Key indices in the region reflect this positive sentiment, with the ASX 200 up 0.4%, Nikkei 225 rising by 1.1%, and KOSPI also gaining 1.1%. This upward trend in Seoul's shares is attributed to the strength in technology stocks, indicating a broader regional optimism following the tech-driven gains in the U.S.
