Chinese EV stocks fall as competition puts pressure on carmakers

South Korea’s Kospi retreated nearly 2 per cent, while Australia’s S&P/ASX 200 index declined 1 per cent. China’s CSI 300 was flat, and Japan’s Topix inched up 0.2 per cent.

On Tuesday, the S&P 500 fell 0.6 per cent, dragged down by tech stocks. The tech-heavy Nasdaq Composite slid 1.6 per cent, notching its worst daily fall since late October.

The US Federal Reserve begins its next two-day interest rate-setting meeting on January 30.
