Japanese shares edged higher after reports the nation’s pension fund may boost equity holdings and industrial output expanded faster than analysts estimated. The MSCI Asia Pacific Index rose less than 0.1% to 135.60 as of 1:44 p.m. in Tokyo, paring gains of as much as 0.8% earlier. The measure is heading for its first monthly decline in seven months after Japanese indexes entered a correction yesterday after reaching about five-year highs on 22 May 2013. “Price moves are being exaggerated by thin volume as investors stay on the sidelines,” said Alex Wong, a Hong Kong-based Director at Ample Capital Ltd. “You can’t be bullish after the market fell so much, but with foreign markets being so resilient, you can’t be too bearish. Utilities remain weak as people are still selling high-yield stocks.” Singapore’s Straits Times Index fell 0.7%, heading for its lowest close since 23 April 2013. India’s S&P BSE Sensex fell 1.3%. Hong Kong’s Hang Seng Index slipped 0.1%, while China’s Shanghai Composite Index swung between gains and losses. Japan Rebound: Japan’s Topix index rose 0.8% and the Nikkei 225 Stock Average gained 1.9%. Both gauges plunged more than 10.0% through yesterday from their 22 May 2013 high, entering what some investors define as a correction. Even after yesterday’s plunge, the Topix and the Nikkei 225 are still up more than 30.0% this year after the Bank of Japan pledged to reach 2.0% inflation within two years with unlimited bond buying and by doubling the monetary base. South Korea’s Kospi Index rose 0.3% and Taiwan’s Taiex Index gained 0.1%. New Zealand’s NZX 50 Index climbed 0.8%. Australia’s S&P/ASX 200 Index added 0.3%. Futures on the Standard & Poor’s 500 Index advanced 0.1%. The gauge rose 0.4% yesterday as weaker-than-expected data on economic growth and jobless claims boosted speculation the Federal Reserve will maintain stimulus. Shares on the MSCI Asia Pacific Index traded at 13.3 times estimated earnings yesterday, compared with 15.0 times for the S&P 500 and 13.4 times the Stoxx Europe 600 Index, according to data compiled by Bloomberg News. Bernama.com: Share Prices Traded Higher At Midday Lifted By Gains In Key Consumer Heavyweights Share prices on Bursa Malaysia were traded higher at midday today, lifted by gains in key consumer heavyweights, dealers said. At 12.30 p.m., the FBM KLCI rose 1.55 points to 1,776.47, after opening 1.78 points higher at 1,776.70. ~ End ~ Sources: Bloomberg, Bernama This report is for internal circulation only.
