Asian-Pacific benchmarks finished broadly lower, reflecting currency jitters, profit taking and cautiousness ahead of U.S. Fed Reserve’s decision on interest rates Wednesday. However, China Shanghai Composite jumped 2.3%, extending Monday’s rally on improved demand for Chinese shares. Brokerage Citic Securities rose by the 10% daily limit on news that it plans to issue 500 million new shares to Chinese institutional investors. Across the region, the Nikkei slipped 0.6% to 17,190.90 as weaker dollar weighed on exporter issues, threatening to hurt overseas earnings. Export-related high-tech component maker Kyocera fell 2.3%, followed by optics and electronics giant Canon, which dropped 1.4%. In currency markets the dollar bought 111.65 yen. Hong Kong’s Hang Seng slid 1%, dragged down by real-estate issues and energy stocks. Taiwan weighted index slipped 1.1%, Singapore Straits Times lost 1.1%, while Australia’s All Ordinaries inched up 0.05%, helped by the country’s top logistics firm, Toll Holdings, up 6.42%.
