TOKYO - Asian shares were off to a cautious start on Monday as investors pinned their hopes on any signs of a thaw in Sino-U.S. trade negotiations while oil prices firmed on worries over heightened tensions between the United States and Iran.

Wall Street shares closed slightly lower on Friday after hitting a record high thanks to signals last week from the Federal Reserve that it would cut interest rates soon to bolster its economy from protracted trade conflicts. “Event-driven players are buying back stocks as U.S. and China at least appear to be talking to each other,” said Norihiro Fujito, chief investment strategist at Mitsubishi UFJ Morgan Stanley Securities.

In China, the Global Times newspaper said FedEx Corp is likely to be added to Beijing’s ‘unreliable entities list’. Brent crude futures rose 0.6% to $65.58 per barrel, near Friday’s three-week high of $65.76. U.S. crude futures were up 0.75% at $57.88 per barrel. Yet tensions remain high between longtime foes Iran and the United States, with Washington due to announce “significant” sanctions on Iran on Monday.

They report call or put not both simultaneously as they do on American news even financial news follows the U.S. standard. Not there.

Grey means stop. Not inactive or cancelled. There is a stop order in force there at those numbers. They cycle through the day never including option.

This is intra day trading on the Singapore stock exchange. Green means ok. Not necessarily up. Red means bull not necessarily bear. Bulls can go either up and down on their stock market on that display for local.

Are Asian stocks just an elaborate Keno game?
