US Election 2016: Asia markets jolted by vote results
November 09, 2016
Asian stocks have fallen as Donald Trump looked increasingly likely to become new US president.
Japan's Nikkei 225 closed down by 5.4% while European and US markets are expected to drop when trading resumes on Wednesday.
Reports say traders expected a comfortable Hillary Clinton win.
Some analysts have likened the shock of a probable Trump victory to the Brexit result earlier this year.
