Asian markets trade mostly in red in early deals on Friday

07 Sep 2018 Evaluate

Most of the Asian markets are trading in red in early deals on Friday as the US and China moved closer to imposing tariffs on billions of dollars of each other's goods, sounding a call of caution in the markets. Investors also remained cautious ahead of the release of US jobs data for the month of August later in the day. The report is expected to show employment increased by about 191,000 jobs in August after rising by 157,000 jobs in July, while the unemployment rate is expected to dip to 3.8 percent from 3.9 percent. Besides, the Nikkei dropped to 1-1/2-week lows as investors sold chip equipment makers and fretted over reports that US President Donald Trump could be contemplating taking on Japan over trade. Among the other Asian markets, South Korea, Hong Kong, Malaysia, Singapore, Shanghai and Taiwan are in negative territory. Bucking the trend, Indonesia is higher.

Nikkei 225 dipped 231.34 points or 1.04% to 22,256.60, KOSPI Index slipped 21.29 points or 0.94% to 2,266.32, Hang Seng dropped 230.69 points or 0.86% to 26,744.13, FTSE Bursa Malaysia KLCI contracted 1.18 points or 0.07% to 1,797.39, Straits Times crumbled 23.56 points or 0.75% to 3,124.13, Shanghai Composite decreased 3.46 points or 0.13% to 2,688.13, and Taiwan Weighted down by 91.47 points or 0.84% to 10,832.83.
