Japanese stocks rally to lead Asian markets higher, tracking a positive global lead after U.S. indexes notch another record finish, but South Korean shares underperform amid geopolitical concerns.
In the latest Bedtime with BTIG note, strategist Dan Greenhaus passes along this chart of various markets and how they've performed year to date.
