Asia stocks brush off Wall St. slide after Trump's comments, dollar revives
Asian stocks and the dollar edged up on Thursday, shaking off the risk aversion that gripped financial markets overnight after President Donald Trump threatened to shut down the U.S. government and end the North American Free Trade Agreement. MSCI’s broadest index of Asia-Pacific shares outside Japan rose 0.45 percent. Japan’s Nikkei pulled back 0.3 percent, with steelmakers slumping after the Nikkei business daily reported that Toyota Motor Corp was looking to cut the price of steel supplied to component makers in the October-March period.
