Stocks in Asia traded mixed Wednesday as investors awaited the outcome of the Federal Reserve’s policy meeting, where it’s widely expected to cut interest rates again. Treasuries were steady after recent gains.
Shares slipped in Tokyo and Sydney, were little changed in Hong Kong and ticked higher in Seoul and Shanghai. U.S. and European futures edged lower. Ten-year Treasury yields held around 1.80% after retreating for a second session Tuesday, when the Fed acted to calm money markets. Oil stabilized on signs Saudi Arabia is quickly restoring production following the debilitating weekend attack.
