Asian markets traded in red in early deals on Monday, as the market sentiments dulled with the lingering fears over economic ramifications with the aggressive monetary policy tightening by US Federal Reserve and by other central banks around the world. Additionally, persisting Ukraine- Russia war, surging inflation and supply chain chaos also pressured market sentiments. Japanese stocks tumbled in the session with the technical correction after previous sessional gains and on negative overseas cues. Meanwhile, investors also side-lined after Japan announced ban on Russian oil imports ‘in principle’ as part of a G7 campaign, despite the country’s heavy reliance on energy imports. Shanghai equities are also in negative trend with the fears over country’s economic health amid continued COVID lockdown with China's zero-COVID policy.
