Japan’s Nikkei 225 was down 0.10% while the broader Topix added 0.12%. South Korea’s Kospi climbed 0.34%, and the small-cap Kosdaq was little changed.
Futures for Hong Kong’s Hang Seng index last traded at 24,252, pointing to a weaker open compared to the HSI’s last close of 24,366.94.
US stocks fell off the highs of the day, despite a better-than-expected inflation report.
The Dow Jones fell 250 points off the highs of the day to end flat, while selling in tech stocks meant both S&P 500 and Nasdaq underperformed.
The US Dollar fell to 2023-lows, while Gold prices saw a rebound from lower levels.
Futures on Wall Street are down even after US President Donald Trump announced that a deal with China is “done” and is only subject to approval from leaders of both countries.
However, Dow futures are currently down 100 points, S&P 500 futures are below the flat line, while the Nasdaq futures are down 60 points.
