Asia-Pacific markets mostly fell Friday, tracking Wall Street declines as investors assessed the state of the economy.

Japan’s benchmark Nikkei 225 lost 0.33% while the Topix declined 0.92%. South Korea’s Kospi added 0.66% after coming back from a holiday. The small-cap Kosdaq fell 0.37%.

Australia’s ASX/S&P 200 lost 0.26%.

Futures for Hong Kong’s Hang Seng Index pointed to a lower open, trading at 26,354, against the index’s previous close of 26,752.59.

Overnight, the three major averages declined. The S&P 500 and Nasdaq Composite pulled back from fresh all-time intraday highs on Thursday, with both indexes taking a breather from their gains in the previous session as the U.S. government shutdown continues.

The broad market index dropped 0.28% to close at 6,735.11, while the tech-heavy index slid 0.08% to finish at 23,024.63. The Dow Jones Industrial Average, meanwhile, declined 243.36 points, or 0.52%, to close at 46,358.42.
