China-Taiwan row rattles Asian bourses Stock markets across Asia fell Friday as investors worried that the Taiwan-China diplomatic row and the Japanese rally in technology shares have both gotten too hot. Taiwan's Weighted Index plummeted 506.46 points, or 6.4 percent, to 7,411.58. The index's sharpest single-day fall in nine years came on fears that the row between China and Taiwan would escalate into military conflict. Beijing said Thursday that China possesses neutron bomb technology. Since Taiwanese President Lee Teng-hui on Monday described ties with China "state-to-state," igniting furious condemnation in a country that disputes Taiwan's sovereignty, the Taiwanese market has lost 13 percent.
