STOCKS
STOCKS: Regional equity markets trade mixed overnight, after Friday's U.S.
GDP-inspired rally failed to boost Asia-Pacific stocks.
- Elongated holidays in Japan, upcoming holidays across the broader Asia-Pacific
region and several notable global risk events due throughout the week limited
activity..
- Chinese & HK equities were mixed, in spite of stronger than expected Chinese
industrial profits data released over the weekend, with liquidity matters, the
global trade situation and fall out from the recent OBOR summit in China all
playing on investors' minds. Agricultural Bank of China's latest earnings report
was largely in line with expectations.
- Hang Seng +0.8%, CSI 300 +0.4%, ASX 200 -0.5%.
- U.S. equity index futures trade marginally higher. S&P 500 +1, DJIA +12,
