According to the latest information, China intends to continue military exercises near Taiwan, as well as to conduct them on a regular basis.

Among the representatives of the Japanese Nikkei 225, the decrease in the share price was demonstrated by SoftBank Group Corp. (-7.5%) due to the company's key fund receiving a net loss totaling $21.68 billion due to a decrease in quotes of securities of technology sector enterprises.

As a result of the decrease in net profit of Tokyo Electron, Ltd. by 12% due to an increase in production costs, the company's stock quotes fell by 9%.

Among Chinese companies, Country Garden Services Holdings, Co., Ltd. showed the largest increase in the value of securities. (+6%), China Unicom (Hong Kong), Ltd (+3.5%), and Xinyi Solar Holdings, Ltd. (+2.5%).

Shares of Cathay Pacific Airways edged down slightly by 0.4%, although they posted record gains during trading on the back of news that the Hong Kong government intends to phase out restrictive measures.

South Korean CheilJedang, Corp. showed a 9% increase in share price in connection with the provision of strong corporate reporting for the past quarter. The company managed to get a net profit that exceeded market expectations.

At the same time, the value of the securities of Samsung Electronics, Co. fell by 1.2%, while Kia, Corp. and LG Electronics, Inc., on the contrary, increased by 0.12% and 0.3%, respectively.

Australia recorded an increase in business confidence in July by 5 points compared to the June level. Its final increase for the previous month was 7 points. At the same time, there is a decrease in the consumer confidence indicator in August to 81.2 points from the July level of 83.8 points.

Stock quotes of Megasport, Ltd. increased by 9% due to the fact that the company managed to reach a profitable level in the fourth quarter of the financial year.

Quotes of National Australia Bank, Ltd. decreased by 3%, although the company was able to increase the value of net profit in the third quarter of the fiscal year to 1.85 billion Australian dollars (equivalent to 1.29 billion US dollars) from last year's mark of 1.65 billion.
