Stocks in Asia traded mixed on Tuesday as investors weighed further discussions on trade between Washington and Beijing. The pound stayed lower after a slump in the wake of U.K. Prime Minister Theresa May delaying a critical vote on Brexit.
Benchmarks fell in Japan and were little changed elsewhere. India’s stocks fluctuated as traders took in the central bank governor’s surprise resignation and the implications for Prime Minister Narendra Modi of regional election results. Asian shares climbed from intraday lows after a statement saying Chinese Vice Premier Liu He discussed the timetable for trade talks with U.S. Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin by phone. U.S. futures remained lower and Treasuries were little changed. European futures rose. The dollar drifted and the yen pared some of Monday’s losses
