Tokyo stocks open lower with eyes shifting to earnings
Tokyo stocks opened lower on Monday as Japan's ruling bloc retained its majority in the upper house election as widely expected, with focus now shifting to corporate earnings this week. "The upper house election this weekend ended with a ruling bloc victory with a majority of seats... in line with expectations, and its impact on the stock market will be neutral," Okasan Online Securities said in a commentary. "As corporate earnings season starts this week... investors' eyes will shift away from expectations for excessive money flows to negative factors such as the worsening of corporate performances," it said.

It’s hard not to focus on the communication faux-pas from the New York Fed, but it seems too important to avoid.

Mahathir’s son ready to inherit Malaysia’s political legacy
Mukhriz Mahathir, son of the current prime minister of Malaysia, says he is prepared to follow in his father’s footsteps after the world’s oldest leader hands over the premiership to Anwar Ibrahim, his former longtime political foe and now ally. Mahathir Mohamad, who turned 94 on July 10, is facing rising pressure to pass the baton to Mr Anwar, as agreed by the ruling coalition parties before the country’s general election in May 2018. Mukhriz is the prime minister’s fifth child and only political heir.

Global stocks down as big rate cut hopes fade, dollar rises
A gauge of global stocks declined after early gains dissipated on Friday as expectations for a strongly dovish U.S. Federal Reserve at its next meeting were dialled back, pushing the dollar higher. On Wall Street, a climb in major indexes fizzled late in the session after the Wall Street Journal reported the Fed is likely to cut rates by 25 basis points when it meets later this month, after comments by a Fed official on Thursday raised expectations a larger cut may be on the cards.

Global stocks mostly slide on trade war fears
Global stock markets mostly fell on Thursday after U.S. President Donald Trump said he could impose more tariffs on Chinese goods and Japan's exports tumbled. Benchmarks in London, Frankfurt, Shanghai and Tokyo all declined, as did Wall Street futures. Trump alarmed investors by saying he had $325 billion of Chinese imports available for additional tariffs "if we want." That shook markets that had been reassured by Trump's June agreement with Chinese President Xi Jinping to resume trade negotiations.

Global stocks gain on Fed rate cut optimism; oil drops
A gauge of global stocks advanced on Thursday, erasing declines on a late rally after comments from a U.S. Federal Reserve policymaker heightened expectations for a rate cut, while oil prices dropped on forecasts of rising output. In a speech read as a strong argument in favour of quick and aggressive action by the Fed to cut rates this month, New York Fed President John Williams said policymakers need to add stimulus early to deal with too-low inflation when rates are near zero. "In all the Fed speak we’ve had... it seems like the ones that are more interested in cutting are more visible," said Thomas Martin, senior portfolio manager at Globalt Investments in Atlanta, Georgia.
