Asia Markets


Stocks in Asia traded mixed Friday after modest gains in their U.S. counterparts



Shares closed higher in Japan and Korea and fluctuated in China, with trading volumes lower than usual. The yen steadied and Japanese 10-year bond yields rose after the Bank of Japan cut purchases of some longer-dated bonds in a regular operation.




Earlier, the S&P 500 Index closed up after data showed retail sales jumped by the most since September 2017 and unemployment claims fell.

The euro pared losses following disappointing German and euro-area factory numbers.

So far this week, economic data out of China optimistic signals from the trade talks had not been enough to increase much risk appetite amid a mixed start to the earnings season.
