In China, shares of chipmaker Wingtech Technology plunged 10% at the open, hitting the daily limit for a second consecutive session, after the Dutch government took control of its Netherlands-based subsidiary Nexperia.
The Netherlands' Minister of Economic Affairs announced on October 12 that the move ' made under the Goods Availability Act in September ' was aimed at 'preventing a situation in which the goods produced by Nexperia would become unavailable in an emergency.'
Nexperia plays a crucial role in Europe's semiconductor supply chain, producing high-volume chips used in automobiles, consumer electronics, and industrial products.
Elsewhere in Asia, Singapore's economy expanded 2.9% in the third quarter, according to preliminary government data released Tuesday, moderating from 4.4% growth in the previous quarter.
