Asia’s benchmark stock gauge headed for the highest close since May and European index futures gained while Treasuries declined as Senate leaders made progress on a U.S. debt deal. Australia’s dollar jumped after central bank minutes signaled an interest-rate cut wasn’t imminent.
Democrat and Republican Senate leaders made reference to progress in talks on a deal to suspend the debt ceiling through Feb. 7 and fund the government through Jan. 15. The U.S. will not default, former Treasury Secretary Lawrence Summers said in Seoul today. The Reserve Bank of Australia is gauging the impact of “substantial” policy stimulus on the economy, according to minutes of its last meeting.
