Japan’s Nikkei index fell on Monday.
A sell-off in US technology stocks, combined with rising oil prices, deepened concerns over inflation and higher interest rates.
The Nikkei dropped 2.05 percent to 63,984.45 points at the start of trading.
The broader Topix index fell 1.22 percent to 4,016.34 points.
The figures are tied to developments unfolding around the world.
