Asian markets ended mostly lower on Monday as rising bond yields globally sparked fears that central banks would tighten policy sooner than expected. Japanese shares ended down as some investors are trying to adjust their positions ahead of the end of the fiscal year, and by concerns that the passage of a $1.9 trillion US Covid-19 relief package could cause inflation to soar. Chinese shares declined despite strong trade data from China that raised hopes for a quicker economic recovery, while ominous comments from China’s foreign minister about the self-ruled island of Taiwan put pressure on market sentiment.
