Asian Markets trade mostly lower in early deals on Friday

13 Aug 2021 Evaluate
Most of the Asian equity benchmarks traded lower in early deals on Friday, as the participants got spooked by the alarming spread of covid delta variant infection across the region. A partial shutdown of a major Chinese port due to a virus outbreak stoked concerns about a repeat of last year’s pandemic shipping woes. Moreover, China’s regulatory curbs also weighed down the sentiments. Japan’s Nikkei is slightly higher on bargain hunting after previous session slump. Even though, the gains remained trimmed as the participants got conscious after the country reported 18,889 new covid cases on Thursday, setting a single-day record high for the second consecutive day and topping 18,000 for the first time. South Korea marked the highest slide in the region with the deterioration in the chip-sector prospects and virus woes. On Global Front, Wall street posted a record high, with the advance in Treasury 10-year yields amid a tepid 30-year auction and data highlighting price pressures and a labor market recovery. Among the Asian stocks, Hong Kong, Singapore, South Korea, Taiwan, Indonesia, China and Malaysia are in negative territory. Bucking the trend, Japan is trading higher.

Straight times down by 185.93 points or 0.70% to 3,159.75, Hang Seng diminished by 37.68 points or 0.14% to 26,331.89, Taiwan Weighted shrunk by 185.84 points or 1.08% to 17,034.10, KOSPI dipped by 43.05 points or 1.34% to 3,165.33, Jakarta Composite lower by 5.82 points 0.09% to 6,133.83, Shanghai Composite slipped by 8.98 points or 0.25% to 3,515.76, and FTSE Bursa Malaysia KLCI curtailed by $ 0.34 points or 0.02% to 1,501.63.
