Singapore shares join regional slide, falling 0.7% on Wednesday.

THE days leading up to the US-China trade talks have seen more mines scattered along the road towards a resolution. And if the effect of which wasn't noticeable during Tuesday's Asia session, it was certainly felt on Wednesday.

Most other Asia-Pacific markets fared similarly, with benchmark indices in Australia, Japan, Hong Kong, Malaysia and South Korea ending lower. Bucking the trend was China, which was lifted by banks and real estate firms. The Shanghai Composite Index added 11.29 points or 0.4 per cent to finish at 2,924.86.

Across the market, decliners beat advancers 207 to 156. Six of the blue-chip index's 30 counters ended in the red.
