Stocks in Asia were mixed in thin trading Monday, while the dollar retreated for a third straight session.
With little more than positioning adjustments and order flows governing markets in the run-up to the New Year holiday, equities had a scattered performance at the end of a blockbuster year. Futures on the S&P 500 Index edged up after a lackluster session Friday. Japanese, Australian and South Korean shares dropped, while Hong Kong and Shanghai rose. Treasuries were flat.
