China has cautioned it will respond if the United States takes any new steps on trade, meanwhile Foreign Minister Chrystia Freeland will meet the U.S. Trade Representative in Washington later today for another round of talks to renew the NAFTA trade pact.  While Japanese Nikkei fared better on the back of a softer yen and rallied more than 1%, other major indices such as Shanghai Composite, Hong Kong’s Hang Seng and Singapore’s STI are all trading downtrend providing bearish influence to allied markets.
