Stocks in Asia advanced, with Hong Kong outperforming after U.S. President Donald Trump on Friday stopped short of specifying tough sanctions over China’s new national security law for Hong Kong.
The dollar retreated. Hong Kong’s Hang Seng Index gained over 3%, while Tokyo, Seoul, Sydney and Shanghai saw more modest moves. U.S. stock futures pared earlier declines as investors weighed the violent protests in some American cities that have stoked concerns about a reacceleration in infection rates and a damper on the economic recovery. Crude oil ticked lower.
