Asian shares, dollar, oil dip as US shutdown drags on


TOKYO: Asian shares, oil prices and the dollar came under pressure on Monday as politicians in Washington showed no signs of making progress to resolve the U.S. budget standoff, while safe-haven gold inched higher.

Financial bookmakers expected European shares to follow Asia lower and open down between 0.4 and 0.5 percent.
