Asian-Pacific benchmarks ended mostly in the red on sharp declines of U.S. stock markets overnight and soaring oil prices, boosted by threatening Hurricane Rita. The Nikkei fell 0.3%, dragged by consumer-electronics group Sony Corp. and other decliners like Advantest Corp., Honda Motor. Across the region, South Korea’s Kospi added 0.3% and Australia’s All Ordinaries gained 0.2%. Markets in Hong Kong, Shanghai and Singapore finished down. |
