China announced the three days of drills on Saturday, after Taiwan's President Tsai Ing-wen returned to Taipei following a meeting in Los Angeles with U.S. House of Representatives Speaker Kevin McCarthy. Chinese shares have fallen on those heightened geopolitical tensions around the Taiwan Strait. Across the rest of Asia, shares have inched higher, on hopes the global economy could hold up in the face of high inflation and interest rates.
