Financial markets across Asia experienced downward pressure as a sharp sell-off in technology equities weighed heavily on broad indexes. The MSCI Asia-Pacific excluding Japan index slid 0.3% on Friday, extending its decline to four straight weeks of losses. Investors shifted capital into government bonds, driving yields lower as risk aversion spread across regional exchanges. The decline in yields reflects growing market sentiment that central banks may pause or scale back planned interest rate hikes. Broader global macroeconomic worries, including persistent inflation concerns and supply chain adjustments, contributed to investor anxiety. Technology shares bore the brunt of the downturn due to valuation compressions and sector rotation trends. Traders remain focused on upcoming economic data releases for signals on monetary policy paths.
