SYDNEY - Stocks and oil fell while safe-haven gold rose on Monday as the death toll from a coronavirus outbreak surpassed the SARS epidemic, raising alarm bells about its severity.
MSCI’s broadest index of Asia-Pacific shares outside Japan stumbled 0.7% to be on track for its second straight day of loss. Japan’s Nikkei fell 0.8% while South Korea’s KOSPI was off 1.4% and Australian shares eased 0.5%. “Markets will be sensitive to coronavirus news, as factories and ports in China reopen. The extent to which that is achievable will indicate the level of ongoing disruption,” they added.
China’s central bank has taken a raft of measures to support the economy, including reducing interest rates and flushing the market with liquidity. From Monday, it will provide special funds for banks to re-lend to businesses working to combat the virus. An advance team of international experts led by the World Health Organization left for Beijing to help investigate the epidemic, the Geneva-based agency said on Sunday.
