Benchmark indexes were higher at the open in Japan, but slipped in Australia and fluctuated in South Korea. Contracts for Hong Kong’s Hang Seng Index added just 0.1% and those for US shares edged lower. The S&P 500 ended below 4,500 Tuesday while an index of small caps slid about 2% and a gauge of homebuilders sank 5.5%.
The dollar weakened slightly early Wednesday after rising the previous session as US yields increased.
