Asian-Pacific benchmarks fell across the region, reflecting an oil price rise to $69 a barrel and cautiousness following the steep declines on Wall Street. The Nikkei recovered from earlier lows to close down 1.2%. Among other regional markets, Taiwan’s Weighted index dropped 1.7%, Hong Kong’s Hang Seng slipped 1.4%, and South Korea’s Kospi fell 1%.
