Markets Slump as Greenland, Japan Fears Shake Up Torpid Trading

View descriptionShare

Japanese bonds rebounded at the open on Wednesday after a selloff that triggered volatility across global financial markets. Treasuries also edged higher. Japan's 40-year bond yield fell six basis points after Finance Minister Satsuki Katayama called for calm after a rout that had pushed yields to all-time highs. Treasuries also recovered part of their losses, with the yield on the 10-year dropping one basis point to 4.28%. For more on what's moving the markets in the Asia-Pacific, we turn to Paul Dobson, Executive Editor for Asia Markets.

Plus - US benchmark stock indexes sank more than 2% and the dollar slid against most major currencies after President Donald Trump's latest push to take over Greenland. For more perspective, we heard from Christopher Smart, Arbroath Group Managing Partner. He spoke to Bloomberg's Shery Ahn and Avril Hong on the Asia Trade.
