EMERGING MARKETS-Asian stocks mixed as virus fears weigh, Singapore leads losses


    * Manila sees virus curbs extend
    * Indonesia health minister says cases have peaked
    * Malaysia reports record virus deaths
    By Soumyajit Saha
    Aug 3 (Reuters) - Asian equities were mixed on Tuesday, as
uncertainties surrounding the impact of rising coronavirus cases
in the region weighed, with Singapore stocks leading the losses
ahead of crucial earnings out later this week.     
    Singapore's benchmark index fell more than 1% in its
worst session in over two weeks, as losses in the financial
sector drove the bourse lower.
    "Localised factor is likely to play more significant
contribution to the STI’s movement due to the upcoming three
local banks’ Q2 earnings releases... it may be a less rosy
earnings guidance given the global “peak growth” narrative has
intensified," said Kelvin Wong, a market analyst at CMC Markets
(Singapore).
    Index heavyweights UOBH and OCBC are
slated to report quarterly earnings on Wednesday, while peer DBS
Group will release its quarterly results on Thursday.
    Meanwhile, virus-led restrictions in Philippines' capital
Manila were extended on Monday, while neighbouring Malaysia
reported a record 219 coronavirus deaths.
    Indonesia stocks rose after the country's health
minister said on Monday that the wave of coronavirus infections
had passed its peak and the central bank promised to hold rates
at record lows at least until late 2022.
    A Reuters poll showed the country, Southeast Asia's largest
economy, was expected to report an economic growth of more than
6% in the second quarter later this week.
    The rupiah strengthened as much as 0.5%, and was on
track for its best session since May 10.
    Thai stocks also rose, ahead of a decision on the
country's key interest rates on Wednesday. Economists expect the
 Bank of Thailand to keep rates at a record low, a Reuters poll
showed.
