Asian-Pacific benchmarks closed broadly lower on weak U.S. equity markets, speculations of interest-rate hikes and expectations of U.S. September nonfarm payroll data. The Nikkei was the leading decliner, falling down by 1% on high tech issues sell-off, followed by South Korea’s Kospi, down 0.1% on exporter-related stocks. Hong Kong’s Hang Seng ended up 0.1%. The dollar bought 113.34 yen. |
