SINGAPORE : Asian stocks rose on Friday and were poised for their fifth straight week of gains after a set of data highlighted a resilient U.S. economy, lifting investor sentiment ahead of next week's slate of central bank monetary policy meetings.
The U.S. economy grew faster than expected in the fourth quarter as consumers boosted spending on goods, data showed, but it could be the last quarter of solid GDP growth before the lagged effects of the Federal Reserve's jumbo interest rate hikes are fully felt. Futures are pricing a 94.7 per cent probability of a 25-basis-point hike next Wednesday and see the Fed's overnight rate at 4.45 per cent by next December, or lower than the 5.1 per cent rate Fed officials have projected into next year.
Next week will also feature Bank of England and European Central Bank meetings that will indicate the monetary policy path the central banks are likely to take.
