Asia shares slip, dollar steadies ahead of Jackson Hole

By Rae Wee SINGAPORE (Reuters) -Shares in Asia fell on Wednesday, weighed down by a tech-led selloff on Wall Street, while the dollar gained some ground ahead of a key meeting of central bankers later in the week. Oil prices inched higher after falling in the previous session, as traders bet that talks over a possible agreement to end the war in Ukraine could ease sanctions on Russian crude oil, boosting global supply. MSCI's broadest index of Asia-Pacific shares outside Japan fell 0.47%, as did stock futures in Europe and the U.S.. EUROSTOXX 50 futures slid 0.55%, while DAX futures lost 0.5% and FTSE futures eased 0.14%. S&P 500 futures dipped 0.2% and Nasdaq futures lost 0.34%, extending its fall from the cash session overnight. [.N] "The S&P 500 and Nasdaq slumped overnight as investors ditched high-flying tech stocks with their lofty valuations," said Tony Sycamore, a market analyst at IG. Adding to headwinds for the sector, news that Nvidia and AMD have agreed to give the U.S. government 15% of the revenues from chip sales in China, as well as reports that the U.S. is considering taking a 10% stake in Intel, have stoked investor worries of the Trump administration's growing influence on tech companies. Sources also told Reuters that U.S. Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick is looking into the federal government taking equity stakes in computer chip manufacturers that receive CHIPS Act funding to build factories in the country. "These developments signal that U.S. government is heading in a concerning and more interventionist direction," said Sycamore. Other bourses in Asia were similarly in the red on Wednesday, with Japan's Nikkei down 1.2%, while China's CSI300 blue-chip index fell 0.5%. Much of investors' attention at the start of the week was on a meeting between U.S. President Donald Trump, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy and a group of European allies over the Russia-Ukraine war. While the talks concluded without much fanfare, Trump said the United States would help guarantee Ukraine's security in any deal to end Russia's war there. He later said on Tuesday that the United States might provide air support to Ukraine, while ruling out putting U.S. troops on the ground. "The U.S. is not categorically underwriting anything, any security for Ukraine, even if they're open to provide some, because we don't know the conditions under which they will. So there's quite a bit of risk left out there," said Vishnu Varathan, head of macro research for Asia ex-Japan at Mizuho. Oil prices recovered after a fall in the previous session, with Brent crude futures last up 0.46% at $66.09 a barrel. U.S. crude advanced 0.6% to $62.72 per barrel. [O/R] AWAITING JACKSON HOLE All eyes are now on the Kansas City Federal Reserve's August 21-23 Jackson Hole symposium, where Fed Chair Jerome Powell is due to speak on the economic outlook and the central bank's policy framework on Friday. Focus will be on what Powell says about the near-term outlook for rates, with traders almost fully pricing in a rate cut next month. "Given the apparent tensions between U.S. CPI and PPI data, (it) does come across as... premature to declare one way or the other. And most importantly, given this kind of dilemma embedded within the data, it is hard to decipher whether the Fed would take or would emphasise the risks that start to mount on the job side of the equation or (the) need to sit firm," said Mizuho's Varathan. Ahead of the gathering, the dollar firmed slightly, pushing the euro down 0.13% to $1.1633, while sterling fell 0.16% to $1.3470. The New Zealand dollar eased 0.17% to $0.5885 ahead of a rate decision by the Reserve Bank of New Zealand due shortly on Wednesday, where a rate cut is expected. Elsewhere, spot gold fell 0.07% to $3,312.89 an ounce.

Tabatha also allows for the management and control of multiple AIs within the same workflows, even if they are from different AI providers, with different billing models and full API level audits of all actions. "For news organizations, Tabatha serves as a seamless extension layer that enhances existing newsroom systems, archives, and editing workflows with advanced AI-driven media analysis, without altering the core properties of legacy infrastructure, minimizing the risk of introducing AI into operations," said Fintan Mc Kiernan, CEO at Ideal Systems SEA. "We're very proud to have VideoAI from Comcast Technology Solutions powering our efforts and to showcase our work together at IBC2025. Tabatha can also serve as a common platform enabling organizations to leverage AI insights across multiple detectors and billing models, all with full API-level auditing." While Tabatha can integrate with many AIs depending on customer requirements, it will launch with a native integration with VideoAI from CTS. Like Tabatha, VideoAI comes from a proven broadcast background having been developed and used by some of the largest broadcast, media and entertainment companies in the world. Based on years of real-word data training and refinements, VideoAI has won numerous accolades including a Technology & Engineering Emmy® Award, NAB Product of the Year Award, and numerous others. Using VideoAI, Tabatha allows for advanced functionality such as curation of content with accurate topic segmentation and a unique per segment synopsis. Deep search of video content for visual objects, celebrities, and semantic queries are all supported. Tabatha can generate advertising tags and standardised asset metadata sets. It can also automatically identify and select key highlights for distribution to social media platforms and apps or export them via Edit Decision Lists (EDLs) for use in editing platforms like Adobe Premiere, GV EDIUS, and others. Ideal Systems, powered by CTS VIdeoAI, is delivering a future-ready solution that modernizes newsroom operations through advanced automation, AI, and deep media intelligence.

China's Bond Rout Seen Fading as Higher Yields Draw in Buyers

The selloff in Chinese bonds that sent them to near the bottom of Asia's performance rankings is likely to cool for now as yields rise to near levels which some investors may perceive as attractive, analysts say. The benchmark 10-year bond yield has climbed to the highest in four months and is within whisker of 1.8%, a level that brokerages including Huachuang Securities see as appealing. Investors may start to rethink their strategy of shunning stocks for bonds, with rising yields also enhancing returns on trades that involve borrowing from the money market to buy debt.
