Asian shares fall in thin holiday trading after tech rally on Wall Street

Shares retreated Friday in Asia, with markets in Greater China closed for holidays. US futures declined as optimism over the US-Iran deal to end their war was dimmed by the postponement of high-stakes talks on reopening negotiations over Iran's nuclear program and getting oil moving through the Strait of Hormuz. US markets will be closed Friday for Juneteenth. Investor sentiment has also been hit by expectations that central banks including the Federal Reserve will raise interest rates to try to curb inflation. Tokyo's Nikkei 225 wavered between gains and losses and was little changed at 71,082.81. The government reported that consumer prices excluding volatile fresh foods was unchanged, but analysts said it would likely pick up in coming months despite higher fuel costs.

Vedanta group's 4 demerged businesses set for stock market debut on June 15

Vedanta group's four demerged businesses are expected to list on the Bombay Stock Exchange and National Stock Exchange on Monday, sources said. Besides Vedanta Ltd, which is already listed, the shares of four newly created entities --Vedanta Aluminium Metal (VAML), Vedanta Oil & Gas (VOGL), Vedanta Power and Vedanta Iron & Steel (VISL) -- will begin trading on Indian stock exchanges.

Under the 1:1 approved demerger scheme, shareholders will receive one share of each demerged company for every one share held in the currently listed Vedanta Ltd.
