Morning Bid: Japan's FX no-show, Meta plunges: A look at the day ahead in Asian markets.
reuters.com/markets/asia/global-markets-view-asia-graphic-pix-2024-04-24/
Quick Glance: Market Volatility in Asia: Impact of Meta's Losses
- The depreciation of Asian currencies against the U.S. dollar and potential actions by monetary authorities are at the forefront of Asian markets.

- Given the current environment that led to a rare joint statement on exchange rates from the United States, Japan, and South Korea this month, no possibilities can be ruled out.
