Asian shares dragged lower by China, Treasury yields climb


SINGAPORE: Asian shares were dragged lower by losses in China on Friday and in the absence of guidance from Wall Street, which was closed for the Thanksgiving holiday, while the dollar stayed on the back foot and Treasury yields climbed a touch.

The holiday lull is likely to extend to Europe, with EUROSTOXX 50 futures mostly flat. Both S&P 500 futures and Nasdaq futures were also little changed.
