Greek bailout deal boosts Asian stocks

AFP, Hong Kong
Asian shares rose Friday, led by banks, after eurozone leaders finally struck a bailout deal for Greece that also puts in place steps to avoid contagion in other struggling economies.
Relief that the multi-billion-dollar agreement had been reached also sent the euro soaring after the single currency had suffered a heavy sell-off due to slow progress over the past few weeks.
However, a warning from the White House that deadlocked talks to hammer out a deal to avoid a US default were still far from over continued to pressure the dollar.
Tokyo rose 1.22 percent, or 121.72 points, to 10,132.11 and Seoul also added 1.22 percent, or 26.19 points, to 2,171.23.
Sydney climbed 1.03 percent, or 46.9 points, to 4,602.9, while Hong Kong jumped 2.08 percent, or 457.51 points, to 22,444.80 and Shanghai closed 0.18 percent, or 4.90 points, higher at 2,770.79.
European leaders agreed at an emergency summit in Brussels on a 109 billion euro ($155 billion) bailout from the European Union and IMF — the second for Greece — while private firms will also roll over their bonds and extend their repayment period.
Lending terms to Ireland and Portugal would also be eased and the 440 billion euro European financial stabilisation fund (EFSF) would be allowed to buy bonds in the secondary market to fight contagion risks.
Although the package means Greece could slip into a default, it puts in place a system to prevent the debt crisis from spreading.
On currency markets the euro was at $1.4396 in Tokyo morning trade after surging to $1.4417 in New York late Thursday from $1.4212.
The single currency fetched 113.21 yen from 113.11 yen after jumping from 112.28.
However, eyes now move to the United States where lawmakers are struggling to reach a deficit-cutting deal to raise the country’s debt ceiling in order to avoid a catastrophic default by the world's number one economy.
The White House poured cold water on reports that an agreement had been struck with Republicans, 12 days before a deadline for the debt limit to be raised.
The dollar inched up to 78.63 yen from 78.43 yen but remains under pressure.
New York’s main contract, light sweet crude for September delivery, rose 47 cents to $99.60 a barrel in the afternoon while Brent North Sea crude for September gained 42 cents to $1 17.93.
Gold closed at $1,585.00-$1,586.00 an ounce in Hong Kong, down from Thursday's finish of $1,596.50-$1,597.50.
In other markets:
Singapore closed up 1.42 percent, or 44.44 points, at 3,182.95. Singapore Airlines rose 0.68 percent to Sg$14.73 and CapitaLand gained 2.43 percent to Sg$2.95. Bangkok rose 1.53 percent, or 16.89 points, to close at 1,121.04.
Indian shares rose 1.55 percent, with the benchmark 30-share Sensex index up 286.11 points to 18,722.3. India's largest mobile phone firm Bharti Airtel rose 3.99 percent or 15.75 rupees to 410.95 while rival Reliance Communications rose 3.43 percent or 3.1 rupees to 93.55.
