Asian equities fall as investors reassess US interest rates
Asian stocks were mostly lower as investors reassessed expectations for higher US interest rates.
The biggest weakness was seen in technology shares, with Dow -0.12%, S&P 500 -0.57%, and Nasdaq -1.06%.
The decline outweighed support from easing tensions in the Middle East.
All three US equity index futures were lower, indicating a negative start to the trading day.
