Japan's Nikkei notched a fresh three-decade high and its 10th consecutive weekly gain on Friday, as investors cheered the central bank leaving its ultra-easy policy settings unchanged.
The Bank of Japan (BOJ) kept intact its pledge to "patiently" maintain massive stimulus. The Nikkei closed 0.7% higher at 33,706, having touched a 33-year high in late trade.
Its weekly gain was 4.5% and the 10-week winning streak that propelled the index 22% higher and was the longest in 11 years.
