Despite Tuesday’s slight optimism, investors remain watchful about developments in the world’s banks, which have seen their balance sheets ravaged by the financial crisis and the deepening global economic downturn.
Earlier most Asian stock markets climbed, but Japanese shares sank to a new 26-year closing low amid ongoing worries about the economic crisis. Japan’s Nikkei 225 stock average fell 31.05 points, or 0.4 percent, to 7,054.98 _ the lowest closing level since Oct. 6, 1982 when the index finished at 6,974.35
