Asian tech stocks rally on Wall Street's record highs and AI optimism, led by SoftBank's 10% surge.

Asian technology stocks surged following a strong rally on Wall Street, driven by robust corporate earnings and easing oil prices. SoftBank Group shares jumped over 10%, with other major players like Tokyo Electron, Advantest, Kioxia, SK Hynix, and Samsung Electronics also posting significant gains. The rally was fueled by optimism around artificial intelligence, especially after Arm Holdings, SoftBank's chip design subsidiary, showed strong performance. This momentum reflects growing investor confidence in AI-related growth and semiconductor sectors globally.
