Stocks in Asia dropped as an unexpectedly strong US jobs report raised the prospects of more rate hikes from the Federal Reserve, while concern over US-China geopolitical tensions also weighed on sentiment.

The dollar climbed on Monday after a gauge of its strength rose more than 1% on Friday, when figures showed a surge in payrolls and unemployment at a 53-year low.
