Asian stocks today: Indices trade mixed; tech firms lift HSI over 0.2%, Shanghai slips 0.1%
Asian markets displayed mixed performance as optimism surrounding Indonesia's US trade agreement was offset by US inflation concerns. Japan's Nikkei and Hong Kong's HSI saw gains, boosted by tech stocks, while Shanghai and South Korea's Kospi declined. The dollar strengthened amid rising US Treasury yields following higher-than-expected US consumer price data.
