Business and finance news from the Asia-Pacific.

President Donald Trump's nomination of Kevin Warsh to head the Federal Reserve has led investors in short-term interest rates to hedge against deeper policy easing this year than the broader market currently anticipates. Since Trump's Friday announcement, flows in options linked to the Secured Overnight Financing Rate — which closely tracks the central bank's path — have reflected bets on a more dovish tilt once Warsh takes his post in time for the Fed's June meeting. He must first be confirmed by the Senate. For more perspective, we spoke to William Lee, Chief Economist at Global Economic Advisors.

Plus -  Most Asian stocks dropped after a tech selloff dragged down US benchmarks and saw a rotation into more economically sensitive industries. Japanese and Australian equities both opened lower. The US declines were fueled by concern advances in artificial intelligence will decimate software companies and hurt profitability across the tech industry. For more on the market action, we heard from Christian Nolting, Global Chief Investment Officer at Deutsche Bank. He spoke to Bloomberg's Shery Ahn and Avril Hong on the Asia Trade.
