Asian markets end mostly lower on Friday

02 Aug 2019 Evaluate

Asian markets ended mostly lower on Friday, followed by heavy selling pressure after a surprise tariff announcement from the United States overnight escalated trade tensions between Washington and Beijing. US President Donald Trump said Thursday that the US is putting 10% tariffs on another $300 billion worth of Chinese goods starting September 1. Japanese shares closed down as US-China trade tensions flared up once again, raising fresh concerns about the outlook for the global economy. Further, Seoul shares declined sharply amid Japan's decision to remove South Korea from a list of countries that enjoy minimum export controls.
