Shares in Asia are mixed after an update on inflation pulled most U.S. stocks lower, though gains for Nvidia pushed the Nasdaq to another record.

Nvidia's gain helped keep the Nasdaq Composite above water today, with the tech-heavy index climbing 0.2% to 20,677 – a new all-time closing high. However, the Dow Jones Industrial Average shed 1% to 44,023 and the S&P 500 fell 0.4% to 6,243 due in part to weakness in financial stocks.
