India, Oct. 5 -- Asian stocks rose broadly on Monday, with markets in mainland China and South Korea closed for holidays.
Focus shifted to the release of the ISM Services PMI later in the day and the minutes of the September FOMC meeting on Wednesday after softer U.S. jobs data reinforced bets that the U.S. Federal Reserve may hold interest rates steady later this month.
The U.S. dollar was on a firm footing in Asian trading and bond yields steadied, while gold edged up slightly to hold above $4,150 an ounce, recovering from an early slide.
