Tech shares lift global markets as oil holds near one-month high

AI Market Summary
Global equities are supported by AI-linked tech strength (ASML's upside revenue and higher guidance; Korea's KOSPI surge led by Samsung and SK Hynix) and softer US inflation prints that cut near-term Fed hike odds and eased Treasury yields. Offsetting risk comes from higher oil prices amid escalating Iran-related Strait of Hormuz export threats, which could reintroduce inflation pressure and raise cross-asset volatility.
