Asian markets

Tokyo, Shanghai, Hong-Kong

Asian markets refers to the stock exchanges and financial trading centers of Asia, including major hubs in Tokyo, Hong Kong, Shanghai, Singapore, and Sydney.

In financial news, the phrase typically appears in reports on global market movements: Asian markets opened lower following Wall Street's decline.

Because of time zones, Asian markets trade while Western markets are closed, making them early indicators of global sentiment.
