Bloomberg Daybreak Asia: Rally Wavers as Buyer Fatigue Kicks In
Stocks in Asia fell early Thursday for the first time in five sessions as the rally on Wall Street sparked by US-China trade talks showed signs of exhaustion, on speculation stocks have run too fast amid risks stemming from a trade war to an economic slowdown and sticky inflation.

The dollar erased losses as Bloomberg News reported the US is not working to include currency policy pledges in trade accords. Bond yields rose as Federal Reserve rate-cut bets receded.
