Asian markets conclude Wednesday’s trade mostly in red

20 Nov 2013 Evaluate

The Asian markets barring Shanghai Composite and Hang Seng concluded Wednesday’s trade in red after the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development lowered its growth forecasts, and as investors adopted a cautious stance ahead of the release of the minutes from the latest Federal Reserve meeting. The OECD forecast only a modest amount of economic recovery next year, cutting its predictions overnight by around 0.5% to 3.6% in 2014. Asia’s largest economy escaped with only a mild reduction, as China’s growth forecast for 2014 was cut to 8.2% from 8.4%.

Japanese exports rose 18.6% from a year earlier in October to Y6.105 trillion marking the eighth straight month of expansion. The increase in the value of merchandise exports was better than a median forecast of a 17.3% rise. In September, exports rose 11.5% on year. Japan's trade deficit almost doubled to Y1.091 trillion, compared with a Y556.2 billion deficit in the same month of the previous year. The figure marked the 16th consecutive month in which Japan ran a trade shortfall, the longest string of monthly deficits on record.
