Asian stocks as well as U.S. and European futures came under pressure Thursday after Federal Reserve minutes signaled tempered optimism about second-half growth and as Sino-American tensions simmered. The dollar held on to a rebound.
Stocks fell in Japan, China and Australia, with Hong Kong and South Korean shares underperforming. A drop in S&P 500 futures signaled Wednesday’s weakness may continue after the Fed noted the health crisis would “weigh heavily” on economic activity and repeated its view that the recovery path depends on virus containment. The greenback built on gains that came after a five-day selloff. Gold pared an overnight fall. Treasury yields ticked lower.
