Stock markets across Asia exhibit gloomy trends

16 Feb 2012 Evaluate

Stock markets across the Asia Pacific region exhibited gloomy trends on Thursday with most of the indices declining over half a percent. Sentiments in the region got dampened after reports indicated that the second bailout package to Greece will be delayed until after the country holds elections in April 2012, reigniting worries that Europe will struggle to avert its debt debacle. Sentiments also got undermined overnight US markets settled on a disappointing note on the back of disappointing earnings announcement from bellwether Apple and uninspiring US January industrial production numbers.

The benchmark in China slipped lower after reports that foreign direct investment in the country slumped for the third month in January, however the fall in markets was limited as investors hoped that the government there would introduce measures to boost growth in world’s second largest economy. The index in Japan too recovered from early lows hit after a bailout for Greece was delayed as the yen held near a three-month low against the dollar, boosting the outlook for exporters.

Shanghai Composite eased 4.24 points or 0.18% to 2,362.46, Hang Seng declined 132.44 points or 0.62% to 21,232.79, Jakarta Composite plunged 33.29 points or 0.84% to 3,919.75, KLSE Composite shed 10.71 points or 0.69% to 1,550.59, Nikkei 225 inched down 1.90 points or 0.02% to 9,258.44, Straits Times slipped 19.08 points or 0.63% to 2,992.60, Seoul Composite plummeted 21.71 points or 1.07% to 2,003.61 and Taiwan Weighted dropped 49.07 points or 0.61% to 7,956.17.
