Asia share losses widen after weak China GDP data


SINGAPORE/HONG KONG: Asian share losses widened on Tuesday after China reported weak fourth-quarter economic data, although investor expectations for a strong rebound in the country remained high even as concerns increase that the global economy is heading for a recession.

London is set to open flat with FTSE futures up 0.02% at 0512 GMT. E-mini futures for the S&P 500 index were down 0.31% however, indicating a lower opening after Monday's public holiday.
