Stocks kicked off the week in mixed fashion on Monday, with a slump in Japanese shares contrasting with more muted moves elsewhere. Treasuries were little changed after gains at the end of last week.
Japan’s stocks opened with a thud as investors took in the latest escalation in trade tensions between the world’s two largest economies -- news that the Trump administration has discussed curbing China’s access to U.S. finance. China’s stocks edged lower in the final session before an important week-long holiday, though the yuan rose offshore. The dollar was little changed, while oil was around $56 a barrel in New York.
