STOCKS: Many of the major Asia-Pacific regional indices were closed for national
holidays on Monday.
- The Hang Seng last trades 1.2% lower, pressured by China walking away from the
upcoming round of trade talks with the U.S. The health care and consumer
discretionary sectors led the way lower, while the utilities & industrial
sectors edged slightly higher.
- Australia's ASX 200 traded marginally lower, with the heavyweight materials
and financial sectors providing some modest pressure. Conversely energy & real
estate provided the biggest sectoral boosts to the index.
