Stock market today: Asian shares are mixed after Wall St powers to more records

Asian shares are mixed, with Hong Kong's benchmark down more than 4%, after Wall Street rolled to more records. U.S. futures edged higher while oil prices shed more than $3 a barrel. On Monday, the S&P 500 climbed 0.8% to build on its record set on Friday. The Dow Jones Industrial Average rose 0.5% to add to its own record, while the Nasdaq composite gained 0.9%. Stocks have broadly rallied on relief that interest rates are finally heading lower. Reports showing the U.S. economy remains stronger than expected have also raised optimism that the Federal Reserve can pull off a perfect landing where it gets inflation down to 2% without causing a recession that many had thought would be necessary.
