Asian stocks fall as tech jitters and Iran sanctions weigh on Nvidia outlook

au.investing.com — August 25, 2026 at 05:04 AM UTC

Asian stocks mostly fell Tuesday as tech share pressure and geopolitical uncertainty prompted investors to trim risk ahead of Nvidia's earnings and a key U.S. inflation report. The MSCI AC Asia Pacific gauge dropped about 0.5%, while U.S. futures steadied. Nvidia is expected to post quarterly revenue near $92 billion, testing whether the AI-driven rally can meet high expectations. The Trump administration threatened broader sanctions on Iran, though oil pulled back to around $92 a barrel. South Korea's KOSPI fell 1.3%, while Japan's Nikkei rose 0.2%. Australia's S&P/ASX 200 gained 0.6% on strong earnings, while China and Hong Kong retreated. Texas Governor Greg Abbott paused new data-center grid approvals over electricity concerns. Markets await the Fed's preferred PCE inflation gauge Wednesday, with traders pricing one rate hike by end-2026.
