Asia stocks fall as coronavirus prompts more lockdowns

Asia-Pacific shares fell sharply led by Australia and India as governments boosted lockdown measures against the coronavirus while talks in the US on a proposed $2tn economic support package stalled. On Monday, India’s Sensex plunged 11.3 per cent — triggering exchange circuit breakers — and Australia’s S&P/ASX 200 fell 5.6 per cent, paring back losses after earlier dropping as much as 8.6 per cent. S&P 500 futures dropped 3.9 per cent in Asian trading on the news after earlier hitting the limit-down circuit-breaker level of 5 per cent. FTSE 100 futures were 5 per cent lower.
