Jakarta +1.56% (6,401.89). Nikkei +0.01% (68,721). Taiwan +0.05% (45,831.87). Straits Times -0.88% (5,693.10).

Japan&#8217;s Nikkei is essentially flat at +0.01 percent to 68,721. Singapore&#8217;s Straits Times is the notable decliner at -0.88 percent to 5,693.10. Investors are watching oil prices and Iran war developments.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>The Asian markets today on 17 August 2026 are presenting a mixed picture that reflects the competing forces operating in global markets this Monday. Hong Kong&#8217;s Hang Seng is the standout gainer at +1.42 percent to 25,473, recovering from last week&#8217;s weakness. Jakarta&#8217;s Composite is also strong at +1.56 percent. Japan&#8217;s Nikkei 225, by contrast, is essentially unchanged at +0.01 percent to 68,721, and Singapore&#8217;s Straits Times is declining -0.88 percent to 5,693.10.<\/p>\n<p>The divergence within Asian markets today reflects sector and market-specific factors rather than a unified directional theme. The Hang Seng&#8217;s gain may partly reflect bargain hunting after underperformance \u2014 Hong Kong stocks have been under pressure from China&#8217;s economic slowdown concerns throughout 2026. Jakarta&#8217;s strong performance reflects Indonesia&#8217;s domestic demand story. The Asian markets today context for Indian investors is broadly neutral to mildly positive \u2014 the Hang Seng and Jakarta gains offset the Straits Times weakness.<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-top:

Brent crude is at $89.20 on 17 August, up from $87.16 last Thursday. This elevated oil price backdrop is creating caution in Asian markets today, particularly for energy-importing economies. The Straits Times, representing Singapore&#8217;s finance and services-heavy market, is more sensitive to global trade and interest rate expectations, explaining its underperformance in Asian markets today.<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-top: 24px;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/univest.in\/screeners\"><strong>Track Asian Markets Today and Their Impact on Indian Equities on Univest<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-top: 24px;\"><em>Download the <a href=\"http:\/\/apps.apple.com\/in\/app\/univest-stocks-investment\/id6443753518\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Univest iOS App<\/a> or <a href=\"http:\/\/play.google.com\/store\/apps\/details?id=com.univest.capp&amp;hl=en_IN\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Univest Android App<\/a> to monitor Asian markets today and global market cues affecting Indian stocks from Univest.<\/em><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Conclusion\"><\/span><strong>Conclusion<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>The Asian markets today on 17 August 2026 are mixed: Hang Seng +1.42%, Jakarta +1.56%, Nikkei +0.01%, while Straits Times -0.88% and KOSPI flat.
