  • Asia-Pacific Markets Expected to Open Lower Amid Rising Oil Prices and Fed Rate Decision
    April 29, 2026, 8:07 PM EDT. Asia-Pacific markets are set for a weaker open following losses on Wall Street and a surge in oil prices.

Brent crude settled at $118.03 per barrel, while WTI hit $106.88. Japanese, Hong Kong, and Australian futures all point to declines as investors weigh geopolitical risks alongside the Federal Reserve's decision to keep interest rates steady. The U.S. Dow Jones fell 0.57%, marking a fifth consecutive losing session, while the S&P 500 and Nasdaq showed marginal movements. The evolving Iran situation and Fed stance remain key market drivers.
