Markets volatile as U.S.–China trade tensions escalate; Asian indices tumble
Asian stocks fell as renewed U.
Equities across Asia traded lower today as escalating tariff threats between the U.S. and China triggered a global risk selloff. Japan’s Nikkei fell 0.7%, Hong Kong’s Hang Seng dropped 1.2%, and Shanghai Composite lost 0.6%. Analysts said uncertainty over trade and Federal Reserve policy is keeping investors defensive. The MSCI Asia ex-Japan index is down 3.4% this week, with safe-haven flows moving into bonds and gold. (Times of India)
