TOKYO: Asian shares won a modest reprieve on Friday after China and the United States agreed to hold their first trade talks since June next week and as the Turkish lira<\/a> extended gains from its record low earlier this week. <\/p>\n

MSCI's broadest index of Asia-Pacific shares outside Japan was up 0.4 per cent, a day after it hit its lowest level in a year. Japan's Nikkei advanced 0.5 per cent. <\/p>\n

In US markets on Thursday, the Dow Jones Industrial Average rose 1.58 per cent and the S&P 500 gained 0.79 per cent. <\/p>\n

MSCI's index of world stocks rose 0.63 per cent on Thursday, the biggest gain in a month. <\/p>\n

News that a Chinese delegation led by Vice Minister of Commerce Wang Shouwen will meet US representatives helped to improve the mood. <\/p>\n

But the impact could be short-lived as such lower-level talks alone are unlikely to resolve the trade dispute. White House Economic adviser Larry Kudlow warned Beijing<\/a> not to underestimate President Donald Trump's resolve in pushing for changes in China's economic policies. <\/p>\n

Indeed, Chinese share markets were hardly impressed by the news. <\/p>\n

The Shanghai composite index rose 0.16 per cent in early Friday trade after ending down 0.66 per cent at 2,705.19 on Thursday, just 0.03 point above a 2-1\/2 year closing low set on Aug. 6. <\/p>\n

That also weighed on MSCI<\/a> emerging markets index, which closed at 13-month low on Thursday. <\/p>\n

Their weakness stemmed also from falls in their currencies after the Turkish lira plunged this month on concerns about diplomatic rifts between Ankara and Washington. <\/p>\n

"Because of the currency crisis in Turkey, investors are shifting funds from emerging markets to developed markets," said Shuji Shirota, head of macro economic strategy at HSBC<\/a> Securities in Tokyo. <\/p>\n

"But if you look at longer-term prospects, the US could be affected if the trade disputes linger. Given a US president tends to do badly in his first mid-term election, he might do more on trade issues after the election," he added. <\/p>\n

In the currency market, the lira bounced back to 5.815 per dollar, up almost 25 per cent from its record low of 7.2400 hit early on Monday, despite threats of more sanctions from Washington. <\/p>\n

It gained some support from the announcement late on Wednesday of a Qatari pledge to invest $15 billion in Turkey. <\/p>\n

The offshore Chinese yuan weakened slightly after a 1.2 per cent climb on Thursday, the biggest daily gain since January 2017 following the trade talks news. <\/p>\n

The yuan last stood at 6.8794 per dollar, down 0.25 per cent on the day but still off Wednesday's 19-month low of 6.9587. <\/p>\n

The euro, which has been affected by concerns about European banks' exposure to Turkey, traded at $1.1375, almost flat on the day and off 13-1\/2-month low of $1.1301 on Wednesday. <\/p>\n

The yen changed hands flat at 110.97 per dollar. <\/p>\n

The pound rose 0.12 per cent on Thursday after 10 straight days of falls though concerns about a hard Brexit continued to undermine the sterling. <\/p>\n

Oil prices were on the defensive, on a weakening outlook for crude demand despite their gains on Thursday thanks in part to a recovery in global shares. <\/p>\n

Brent crude oil futures fetched $71.36 a barrel, down 0.1 per cent in Asia on Friday after a 0.69 per cent rise the previous day. They are on course to log the seventh straight week of losses. <\/p>\n

US crude futures stood at $65.43 a barrel, down 0.05 per cent. <\/p>\n
