Asian markets trade mostly lower in early deals on Wednesday

10 Jan 2024 Evaluate
Most of the Asian markets traded lower in early deals on Wednesday, as the investors side-lined from hefty positions ahead to this week’s key US inflation data. Lingering uncertainty over interest rate outlook after better than expected US jobs data also saddled equity investments. Hang Seng is hovering near its 14 month low hit amidst caution ahead to key Chinese reports like CPI and PPI numbers, trade performance, and a credit reading. Meanwhile, some losses were trimmed amidst bets of China lowering the RRR to boost lending capacity as well as strengthening counter-cyclical and cross-cycle policy adjustments. Bucking the trend Japan’s Nikkei advanced in the session after dipping inflationary pressures in the country countered bets that the Bank of Japan will alter its dovish stance. Moreover, weaker local currency yen also encouraged foreign investments.

Straits Times down 32.08 points or 1% to 3,165.88, Hang Seng declined 67.35 points 0.42% to 16,122.67, Taiwan Weighted diminished 57.39 points or 0.33% to 17,478.10, KOSPI Index narrowed 19.42 points or 0.76% to 2,541.82, Shanghai Composite decreased by 6.07 points or 0.21% to 2,887.18, and FTSE Bursa Malaysia KLCI shrunk by 10.08 points or 0.67% to 1,488.75.

On the flip side, Nikkei 225 up by 700.33 points or 2.07% to 34,463.51 and Jakarta Composite rose by 52.77 points or 0.73% to 7,252.97.
