Asia shares reassured by Powell pick, pause for US jobs test
Asian shares took a breather on Friday as investors gave a guarded greeting to Republican plans for massive U.S. tax cuts, while welcoming the appointment of a sober centrist at the helm of the world's most powerful central bank. EMini futures for the Nasdaq (NQc1) were up 0.3 percent in reaction and spreadbetters pointed to opening gains for the main European bourses. A holiday in Japan kept volumes light, while investors observed the usual caution ahead of the U.S. payrolls report which is expected to show a big bounce back from September's hurricane-hit result.
