Asian markets closed mostly in red on Friday with China’s Shanghai Composite index closing with a cut of more than 7 percent amid on margin trading concerns thereby increasing worries that the country’s bull-run is running out of steam. Japan’s national core consumer price index rose 0.1% on year in May for the 24th straight year-on-year increase and above the flat result expected, but still a slowdown from April's 0.3% gain.

Japanese Household Spending rose to a seasonally adjusted 4.8%, from -1.3% in the preceding month.
