Asian Markets trade mostly lower in early deals of Thursday

07 Apr 2022 Evaluate
Most of the Asian Markets traded lower in early deals of Thursday, as the investors side-lined amid concerns over soaring inflation, move of Westerns countries imposing more sanctions on Russia amid the ongoing war and on impending hawkish monetary policy measures by US Federal Reserve. The US Central Bank in its minutes of the meeting for the month of March announced  interest rate hike by 25 basis points to a range of 0.25 to 0.50 percent, marking the first rate hike since December 2018. The Federal Reserve also plans to reduce the balance sheet by $95 billion a month. Meanwhile, recession fears in US with the interest rate hike also added risk aversion in the market. Japanese stock index is in bearish mode in line with the negative global trend and on dulled sentiments with the concerns over economic health amid uncertainty over Russia-Ukraine reaching cease fire agreement. Tumbling local currency yen also weighed on the equity investments. Shanghai stocks also eased as the surging Covid cases and the lockdowns pressured investments. 

Nikkei 225 down by 475.35 points or 1.74% to 26,874.95, Straight times dipped by 18.79 points or 0.55% to 3,404.00, Hang Seng slipped by 289.22 points or 1.31% to 21,791.30, Taiwan shrunk by 216.86 points or 1.24% to 17,305.64, KOSPI decreased by 36.59 points or 1.34% to 2,698.44, Shanghai lower by 32.37 points or 0.99% to 3,251.06, and FTSE Bursa Malaysia KLCI declined by 2.21 points or 0.14% to 1,602.51.

Bucking the trend, Jakarta Composite up by 23.77 points or 0.33% to 7,127.99.
