Asian shares decline amid slowing growth in China
Asian share prices declined due to worse-than-expected China's service industry data and due to an overnight decrease in metal prices. The MSCI Asian Pacific Index dropped 1.3% to 129.80 as China's economy is slowing and might miss government's target of 7.5% growth. Hang Seng Index slid 1.9%, while Shanghai Composite lost 1.5%.
