Asian stocks mostly rebounded on Tuesday led by technology shares, with Japan's Nikkei rising 1.75 percent and South Korea's Kospi gaining 3.6 percent, while oil prices eased slightly. The gains mirrored a recovery in US technology stocks on Monday, though Stephen Innes of SPI Asset Management cautioned the rebound was not driven by a decisive improvement in AI fundamentals. Oil prices dipped even as Iran's Revolutionary Guards said they hit US military targets in Bahrain and Kuwait, with West Texas Intermediate down 0.3 percent at $82.98 per barrel and Brent North Sea Crude down 0.63 percent at $88.59. US President Donald Trump signed orders imposing new 50-percent tariffs on many Canadian goods, while yields on British gilts rose after comments by new Prime Minister Andy Burnham about public finances worried bond investors. In currency markets, the dollar edged up to 162.51 yen from 162.48 yen, and the euro slipped to $1.1409 from $1.1416.
