Asian stock markets showed mixed results on Monday, with Tokyo's Nikkei 225 index soaring 1.4% to a record 60,564.18. This surge followed a strong performance from US stocks, which saw the S&P 500 close at 7,165.08, marking a nearly 13% increase in less than a month. Oil prices also rose, with Brent crude increasing to $100.57 per barrel due to ongoing tensions in West Asia, particularly concerning stalled negotiations over the Iran conflict. US President Donald Trump indicated a lack of progress in talks, stating that the US would not send envoys to Pakistan for further discussions. Meanwhile, Intel's stock price surged 23.6% after reporting better-than-expected quarterly results, highlighting the growing demand for its products driven by advancements in artificial intelligence. As central banks prepare to announce interest rate decisions this week, market analysts remain cautious amid these geopolitical tensions.
