In Asia overnight, Japan stocks confirmed a bear market as Asia-Pacific investors had their first chance to react to the sour jobs figures in the U.S. from Friday. The 12.4% loss on the Nikkei — which closed at 31,458.42 — was the worst day for the index since the "Black Monday" of 1987 hit Wall Street.
