Japanese shares led a rebound in Asian markets on Friday, building on the lead from investors on Wall Street snapping up stocks that would benefit most from an economic recovery.

The rally interrupted a three-day rout for stocks globally, as market jitters over accelerating U.S. inflation were calmed by Federal Reserve officials reiterating that price pressures from the reopening of the economy would prove transitory.

Japan’s Nikkei (.N225) jumped 1.3%, while MSCI’s broadest index of Asia-Pacific shares outside Japan (.MIAPJ0000PUS) gained 0.6%,

The rally was led by shares in small-cap companies (.RUT), chip makers (.SOX) and transportation providers (.DJT) – businesses that stand to gain as the United States emerges from the pandemic-induced recession.

In cryptocurrencies, bitcoin recovered to just below $50,000 on Friday, after plunging to a 2-1/2-month low of $45,700 in the previous session when a media report of a regulatory probe into crypto exchange Binance added to pressure from Tesla Inc (TSLA.O) chief Elon Musk’s reversing his stance on accepting the digital currency.
