DAVID HAFFENREFFER, CNN ANCHOR: A mostly weak session in the Asian markets overnight, investors reacting very little to the Federal Reserve's decision to hold interest rates steady here in the</s>U.S. DEBORAH MARCHINI, CNN ANCHOR: Lorraine Hahn wraps up the day in Asian markets from our studios in Hong Kong. Hello, Lorraine.</s>LORRAINE HAHN, CNN CORRESPONDENT: That's right, no huge reaction today to the Fed's decision to hold U.S. rates steady. In Japan, though, interest-rate-sensitive bank stocks led gainers in a relatively firm market, but troubled automaker Mitsubishi Motors shares in reverse gear again on consumer complaints cover-up scandal. The company saying it is recalling at least 10,300 vehicles in the United States alone. The total recall price tag at this stage is set at $70 million. Mitsubishi Motors' stock down 6 1/2 percent today. Mobile-phone giant NTT DoCoMo among the movers today, up 2 1/4 percent. And on the broader market, the Nikkei index shed a tenth of one percent. Hong Kong's Hang Seng index dropped 1 1/3 percent with bearish sentiment towards telecom stocks. The territory's largest property developer, Cheung Kong, and its sister firm, Hutchison Whampoa, will report interim earnings Thursday. And over in South Korea, that market finished 2 1/2 percent lower with selling targeted at heavyweight Samsung Electronics. Finally, Taiwan ground to a halt today as one of Asian's strongest typhoons slammed the island. While Typhoon Bilis has moved on, its magnitude forced banks, offices, the stock exchange and schools to close. All markets are expected to reopen on Thursday. We are -- or we were, rather, expecting the release of July unemployment figures out of Taiwan, but that data should be released tomorrow. This is the second strongest typhoon to hit Taiwan this year. And that's a quick check for me here in Asia, back to both of you in New York.</s>MARCHINI: All right, thanks, Lorraine.
