Asian stocks edged higher in light trading as Lunar New Year celebrations kept most regional markets closed. The rebound in U.S. tech stocks helped lift sentiment, easing concerns over Chinese AI firm DeepSeek that had rattled investors earlier.
With attention shifting to the Federal Reserve’s upcoming rate decision, markets remained cautious. U.S. futures showed little movement, while oil prices dipped, reflecting broader uncertainty in global markets.
