Asian stocks rise with the support of the boom in artificial intelligence in China led by "Deepseek"

Asian stocks rose partly thanks to optimism about the development of artificial intelligence in China, which ignores the impact of US President Donald Trump’s decision to impose customary duties on Colombia, and (this before withdrawing the decision at a later time), which led to a decrease in the risk in other markets. The markets have recorded profits in Japan and Hong Kong, while the shares settled on China’s head after achieving early profits. Chinese technology companies linked to the Deepseek business model were a remarkable increase, after the emerging artificial intelligence business on the new business gained a wide momentum. On the other hand, US futures have dropped in Asian trade, amid fear that Chinese applications in artificial intelligence could threaten American technological hegemony. The US dollar has risen with the climbers of the Treasury effects, reflecting a condition of prudence after Trump ordered the imposition of customs duties on Colombia due to the refusal to receive migrants from the United States. On the other hand, the Mexican Bizo withdrew. “Deep SIK shows the possibility of developing strong artificial intelligence models at lower costs, which can change the investment view of the fully artificial supply chain, which depends on high spending of some giant businesses,” says Fay-Sierine Ling, managing director of “Union Bancaire Private”. Despite the optimism surrounding the artificial intelligence sector in China, the general situation of investors in different assets has deteriorated after Trump’s recent attempt to impose drawings about Colombia. This step threatens to impede the recent recovery in the global markets, which came after the US president avoided imposing immediate fees on the goods coming from Mexico, Canada and China, which temporarily calms the concerns about the outbreak of a threatening global trade war. In another context, industrial activity in China in January unexpectedly shrank with the slowdown in preparation for the Lunar Dayn. The official index for industrial purchase managers reached 49.1 points, compared to 50.1 points in December, according to the National Bureau of Statistics Monday. Also read: The profits of industrial companies in China are declining for the third year and trades were disrupted on Monday in Taiwan, South Korea and Australia due to official holidays. In the commodity markets, oil prices dropped after Trump imposed commercial restrictions on Colombia, emphasizing the risks facing the global economy and trade. Brent Crude, the global standard, fell by more than 1% after scoring the first weekly loss in 2025. The US federal is preparing to keep interest rates unchanged this week. The Federal Reserve is generally expected to keep interest rates unchanged at the end of its two -day meeting, and that he will end on Wednesday, the first stop in the interest course he started last September. The US economy still shows its strength, supported by a strong growth in employment and the slowdown in low inflation, making it unnecessary to lower interest rates urgently, according to a memorandum issued by the “Anz” group prepared by a group of economists, including Sharon Zolner. The report added: “Besides, the US trade policies and rates that have not yet been confirmed, as well as the federal government’s efforts to improve efficiency, new energy policies and the procedures for relieving organizational restrictions, all factors that justify the effects of growth and inflation, which accept federal wagons.” The most important economic events for this week: a speech by European Central Bank President Christine Lagarde and a number of officials.
