Asian markets worried about experiencing coronavirus restrictions

In Asia, Japanese Prime Minister Fumio Kishida announced that they are planning to take a series of measures, including restrictions, to prevent the increase in the number of cases in the coronavirus epidemic.

The failure of the real estate company called Sunshine 100 in China to pay $179 million in bonds, and the continued decline of Alibaba's shares due to regulatory concerns, highlighted stock and sector-based divergences in the stock markets.

While the Nikkei 225 index depreciated by 0.3 percent in Japan close to the closing, the Hang Seng index decreased by 1.3 percent in Hong Kong due to the depreciation of Alibaba shares by more than 5 percent.
