Asian stocks slip on weak China trade data, focus shifts to Powell

“U.S. rates are still the number one driver for the Asia region as far as absolute performance is concerned,” Dan Fineman, Credit Suisse’s co-head of APAC equities strategy told Reuters.

The two-year yield, which rises with traders’ expectations of higher Fed fund rates, touched 4.88 percent compared with a U.S. close of 4.894 percent.

“It’s a very slight recession in the scheme of things. I don’t think you’ll see a deep recession,” he said.
