STOCKS: The major Asia-Pacific regional equity indices struggled for upward
momentum Tuesday, after Chinese President Xi pointed to the need for Chinese
policymakers to monitor risks to the economy, while reports did the rounds re:
the existence of additional North Korean missile test sites and as the Globe &
Mail reported that the U.S. will proceed with formal extradition of Huawei CFO
Meng from Canada.
- Nikkei 225 -0.7%, Hang Seng -1.0%, CSI 300 -0.9%, ASX 200 -0.6%.
- U.S. equity index futures held lower, with cash markets set to re-open
Tuesday, on the back of the long holiday weekend. Focus will remain on the
U.S.-China trade spat, the U.S. gov't shutdown & earnings season.
- S&P 500 -19, DJIA -175, NASDAQ 100 -60.
