Asian shares gained smartly on Thursday, buoyed by rising global equities overnight on expectations the US Federal Reserve will not rush to end its stimulus program, but investor caution over Chinese markets capped the upside.

The dollar rose and global equity markets advanced for a second day on Wednesday after a surprisingly sharp downward revision to first-quarter US economic growth eased fears that the Fed would soon wind down its bond-buying scheme which has underpinned investor risk appetite.

Asian shares rose for a third day on Friday led by a sharp rally in Tokyo%u2019s Nikkei, which is on track to end the first half of the year up a barnstorming 31 percent.

Gold, however, plumbed fresh three-year lows with investors battered and bruised after a 30 percent drop this year. Analysts suspect the recent leg lower was due in part to forced liquidations of positions and quarter-end selling by funds.
