Re-escalating US-China tensions created headwinds as the US extended restrictions on Huawei and announced export controls. President Trump further announced that the US would be revoking Hong Kong's special status as a separate customs territory after the National Security Law was approved during China’s annual National People’s Congress meeting, once again sparking social unrest in Hong Kong.

In comparison, the MSCI Asia ex Japan Index lost -1.41% (in USD terms, net dividends excluded).
