Asian stock markets are trading on a mixed note today as investors tempered fears about inflation and the prospects of an early tapering of stimulus by the Federal Reserve.

The Hang Seng is trading down by 0.3% while the Nikkei is trading up by 0.4%. The Shanghai Composite is trading down by 0.6%.

In US stock markets, Wall Street indices rebounded on Thursday after a three-day slide, buoyed by gains in technology stocks as the smallest weekly jobless claims since the start of a pandemic-driven recession lifted sentiment.

The Dow Jones Industrial Average rose 0.7%, while the Nasdaq Composite closed up 1.5%.

Early Thursday, the Labor Department reported initial jobless claims fell to 444,000 in the week ended May 15. That was lower than the prior week's 478,000 claims and economists' forecasts for 460,000 new filings.
