Asian stocks dropped as investors reduced risk exposure ahead of year-end, with the MSCI Asia Pacific Index ending a five-day rally. Japan, Australia, and China saw declines amid thin trading volumes, influenced by holiday seasons and worries about 2025's international trade landscape. Despite the dip, Asia's shares have performed well overall in 2024 due to easing monetary policies and strong tech sector performance.
