Shares had modest gains in Japan, where the ruling coalition chooses a new leader this week who will probably be the next prime minister. Australia also rose, while South Korea was little changed. U.S. futures advanced. The Nasdaq Golden Dragon China Index -- which tracks some of the Asian nation’s largest firms listed in the U.S. -- sank Friday. The S&P 500 edged up to eke out a weekly gain.
The Singapore-traded SGX Nifty, an early indicator of India's Nifty 50 Index’s performance, rose 0.26% to 17,908, as of 6:45 a.m.
Investors are also be watching bond yields. Ten-year Treasury yields broke through the top of a range that’s held since mid-July, surpassing 1.40% after hawkish messages last week from the Federal Reserve and the Bank of England. The dollar slipped.
