Nikkei fell 1.34 per cent and Topix lost 1.31 per cent, while South Korea’s Kospi gained 1.01 per cent. ASX 200 slipped 0.25 per cent.   Overnight, US stocks rallied, the Dow surged 1.29 per cent, S&P 500 gained 1.56 per cent, and Nasdaq jumped 2.21 per cent, recouping much of last week’s losses.  READ STOCK MARKET LIVE UPDATES TODAY
