Article: Asian stocks fall as Micron sparks tech losses, China data weighs

Written by:

Investing.com– Most Asian stocks fell on Thursday as technology shares tracked weakness in their U.S. peers following underwhelming guidance from chipmaking major Micron.

Chinese stocks saw extended losses as weak industrial profits data further soured sentiment towards the country, while traders awaited more developments in a potential trade war with the West. 

Regional markets took middling cues from Wall Street, which ended a smidge higher in choppy trade. But U.S. stock index futures sank on Thursday as middling revenue guidance from the Micron Technology Inc (NASDAQ:MU) saw investors dump chipmaking stocks. 

Anticipation of key U.S. cues- from PCE price index data and the Presidential debate- also kept sentiment skittish.
