Asian shares mostly higher as Wall Street closes previous week near records

Asian shares were mostly higher Monday, after Wall Street finished the previous week near their record levels. Hong Kong's Hang Seng added 0.4 per cent to 26,505.18. The Shanghai Composite edged up 0.2 per cent to 3,878.57. Worries are simmering about China's economy, as analysts say the data for August aren't strong enough to reflect ongoing dynamic growth, especially given the damage from US President Donald Trump's tariff policies. China's retail sales rose 3.4 per cent, and factory output was up 5.2 per cent. The underlying flow is shifting. For years, Beijing leaned on exports as the carry trade that kept growth rolling even as property cracked. But with Trump's tariffs slicing through supply chains, that leg of the trade is gone, said Stephen Innes, managing partner at SPI Asset Management. Australia's S&P/ASX 200 lost 0.3 per cent to 8,836.50, while South Korea's Kospi gained 0.4 per cent to 3,409.94. Stock trading was closed Monday for a national holiday in Japan. Wall ...

Asian shares declined Wednesday, echoing a fall on Wall Street, as political uncertainty took centrestage in Japan, making for cautious trading on the Tokyo Stock Exchange. Japan's benchmark Nikkei 225 shed 0.2 per cent in morning trading to 42,222.36.

Confidence was rocked further by a recent comment from Ishiba's ally, Hiroshi Moriyama, who said he was stepping down as party secretary general. The political tremor is domestic, with Prime Minister Ishiba's key power broker signalling his resignation, shaking the foundations of the ruling party, said Stephen Innes, managing partner at SPI Asset Management. Australia's S&P/ASX200 slipped 1.1 per cent to 8,800.60. South Korea's Kospi edged up 0.3 per cent to 3,181.37. Hong
