Stock market: Asia closed mixed, Seoul and Singapore did well

(ANSA) – MILAN, FEBRUARY 03 – Asian and Pacific stock markets without a precise direction, with the Chinese stock exchanges, Hong Kong and Taiwan still closed for holidays.

Tokyo concluded the session with a decrease of 1.06% also due to the weak SME services data in Japan due to the increase in Covid infections, while Seoul has gone by 1.6%. In particular, the Korean technology stock index rose by more than two percentage points despite the sharp drops of Meta Platforms (Facebook) on the Nasdaq ‘after hours’ after lower-than-expected quarterly profits.

Singapore also did well, up by 1.6% while the Sydney stock market, where various stocks that can anticipate their sectors in Europe are listed, marked a final decline of 0.1%.

On the day of the Governing Council of the ECB, the futures on the launch of the European stock exchanges are uncertain. (HANDLE).
