Asian stock markets are trading on a positive note today on hopes that the global economic recovery can weather the omicron virus variant as well as tighter central bank policies to fight elevated inflation.

The Hang Seng and the Shanghai Composite are trading up by 1.5% and 1%, respectively. The Nikkei is trading up by 0.9%.

In US stock markets, Wall Street advanced on Friday as market participants digested an inflation reading that was in line with consensus, but also marked the largest annual increase in consumer prices in nearly four decades.

All the indexes ended the session higher and the benchmark S&P 500 posted its biggest weekly percentage advance since February, as waning jitters over the Omicron coronavirus variant helped fuel a broad rally early in the week.

The Dow Jones Industrial Average rose 216 points, or 0.6%, the S&P 500 gained 45 points, or 1% and the Nasdaq Composite added 113 points, or 0.7%.

US stock futures are trading on a positive note today with Dow Futures up by 127 points.

About 20 central banks are due to hold meetings this week, including the Fed, the European Central Bank and the Bank of England. Those decisions have the potential to stir market swings.

Gold prices inched higher today as elevated US consumer prices lifted its appeal as an inflation hedge, while investors awaited a flurry of central bank meetings this week, including by the US Federal Reserve, for further direction.

Crude oil prices rose today, extending gains from last Friday, helped by growing optimism that the Omicron coronavirus variant's impact will be limited on global economic growth and fuel demand.
