Asian shares wobble with Wall Street, oil helps boost bonds


SYDNEY: Asian shares fell with Wall Street on Thursday, while a sharp fall in oil prices to a six-month low and a soft reading on the U.S. labour market boosted the global bond market.

European stockmarkets look wary as well ahead of their open, with both EUROSTOXX 50 futures and FTSE futures down 0.6%. S&P 500 and Nasdaq futures were little changed.
