Asian stocks opened steady Thursday after Treasuries rallied and U.S. equities edged lower ahead of an American inflation report that may provide clues on the direction of monetary policy.

Benchmarks were little changed in Japan, Australia and South Korea. U.S. equity contracts inched up. The S&P 500 again flirted with a record before slipping, continuing a pattern of range-bound trading also evident at a global level.
