Asian markets fall amid weak China data and valuation concerns
Asian stocks fell with Nikkei down 4% and Hang Seng 1.
Asian stock markets declined today as investors reacted to weak economic data from China and elevated valuation concerns across equities. Nikkei dropped 4%, while Hong Kong’s Hang Seng slipped 1.5%. Analysts attribute the selloff to profit-booking, slower manufacturing growth, and fears of a slowdown in global trade. Investors are closely watching corporate earnings and central bank policy announcements. Market volatility is expected to persist as regional economies adjust to ongoing supply chain disruptions, interest rate policies, and the impact of geopolitical tensions on investor sentiment and cross-border capital flows.
