Study of Key Asia Stock Technicals Signals More Gains on the Way

In a recent Bloomberg report, SentimenTrader's analyst Dean Christians pointed out that Asia-Pacific equities are showing rare, unanimous strength, with every country index in the region now trading above its 200-day moving average - the first time since 2021.

According to Dean Christians, when more than 95% of Asia-Pacific markets exceed this long-term trend line, the MSCI Asia-Pacific Index has historically delivered a 29% annualized return. "This synchronized momentum from an area at the core of global manufacturing lends further weight to the case for a sustainable global bull market," Christians noted.

Bloomberg also highlighted that the MSCI Asia-Pacific benchmark has risen 16% so far in 2025, poised for its biggest outperformance versus global peers since 2017, supported by a rebound in China and resilient gains across Japan, Korea, Singapore, Indonesia, and Thailand.

While no rally is guaranteed, Christians emphasized that similar shifts in breadth have led to positive returns roughly 80% of the time over the next six to twelve months, often accompanied by strength in commodities.
