Nikkei 225 closes higher by 0.17% at 29,766.97

A bit of a mixed mood in Asia

Nikkei 15-03

Japanese and Hong Kong stocks were more tepid in general, with the selloff in China causing for a bit of a messy Monday for Asian equities.

The Nikkei ends the day slightly higher while the Hang Seng has turned slightly lower, down by 0.1%. Meanwhile, the selloff in China continues with the Shanghai Composite down 1.5% and the CSI 300 index down by 2.7% ahead of the closing stages.

Tech in particular is feeling the pinch, with the ChiNext down by 4.5%. In Hong Kong, Tencent is leading declines while Nasdaq futures have also dipped a little - down by 0.2%.

US futures are more tepid in general and that is presenting for some mixed and cautious tones ahead of European trading. All eyes will stay on bonds again this week.
