Japanese shares hit session lows and U.S. futures dipped after reports that the Trump administration is deliberating blacklisting China’s surveillance firms. Shares in South Korean and Hong Kong fluctuated, and Australian stocks remained near an 11-year high. They fell in Shanghai. U.S. stocks closed higher Tuesday after the U.S. decided to grant limited relief for consumers and carriers that do business with Huawei Technologies Co.
