TODAY’S FACTORS AND EVENTS

After muted initial moves in Pacific Rim stock markets, things turned lower Wednesday as the trading day began in the rest of the region. Only in Japan were major indexes higher, with the Nikkei up 0.25%. Markets in China, Hong Kong, Australia, Malaysia FBMKLCI, -0.18%   and Singapore STI, -1.15%   were down roughly 0.5%.
China’s stock benchmark in Shanghai SHCOMP, -0.97%   opened down 0.5%, giving back some of Monday’s outperformance. That came as the People’s Bank of China said it was removing a rule that limits the amount of funds that so-called qualified foreign institutional investors can take out of China every month. That led to some apprehension of overseas players boosting any selling, said UOB Kay Hian’s Ivan Ip.
