Let's take a look at the performance of the Asian stock markets now.

我们来看看亚洲股市今日的表现。

Things started well for the Chinese mainland markets today. The Shanghai Composite opened higher, but soon lost its early energy and spent most of the day in negative territory, but managed to close 0.14 percent higher. The Shenzhen Component was up 0.38 percent and the ChiNext board closed one-third of a percent higher.

今天，中国内地股市开局良好。上证综指高开，但很快就失去了早盘的活力，全天大部分时间处于下跌，不过收盘时还是上涨了0.14%。深成指上涨0.38%，创业板收盘上涨0.3%。

Online gaming shares extended losses from Friday as China's new rules to curb spending on video games dented sentiment despite regulators' latest efforts to soothe investor concerns. The weak sentiment towards the sector persisted despite a statement fromregulators【监管者】on Saturday that they would make improvements to the proposed rules after "earnestly studying" public views on them. China's CSI Anime Comic Game Index slumped 4.9%, extending a 10% tumble【暴跌】from the previous session. Shares in gaming companies like Giant Network Group and Kingnet Network were down the 10% daily limit. The proposed rules aim at curbing money and time spent on video games. Stocks in the media sector tumbled 2.6%, while defense shares gained 1.6%.

网游股延续了上周五的跌势，因为尽管监管机构最近努力缓解投资者的担忧，但中国抑制视频游戏消费的新规定还是打击了市场情绪。尽管监管机构周六发表声明称，他们将在征求公众意见后对拟议规则进行改进，但市场对该行业的疲软情绪依然存在。中证动漫游戏指数下跌4.9%，延续了上一交易日10%的跌幅。巨人网络集团和恺英网络等游戏公司的股价跌幅超过了10%的日幅限制。拟议中的规则旨在限制在网游上消耗的金钱和时间。媒体股下跌2.6%，国防股上涨1.6%。

The Hong Kong market was closed for Christmas. In Japan, the Nikkei share average ended higher, underpinned【巩固】by prospects for U.S. rate cuts, although shipping company shares fell on expectations a resumption in Red Sea shipping would weigh on freight rates. The Nikkei 225 rose 0.26%, while the broader Topix inched up 0.04%. While the markets were mixed, the only obvious trend was the decline in shipping firms. The Japanese shipping shares index fell 6.51% on Monday and was the worst-performing sector among the Tokyo Stock Exchange's 33 industry sub-indexes. Kawasaki Kisen fell 8.6% to become the worst performer on the Nikkei. On the flipside, Fast Retailing rose 0.62%, giving the biggest boost to the Nikkei among individual shares.

香港市场因圣诞节休市。在日本，日经平均指数收盘上涨，受美国降息前景支撑，不过航运公司股价下跌，因预期红海航运恢复将拖累运费。日经225指数上涨0.26%，东证指数上涨 0.04%。虽然市场涨跌不一，但唯一明显的趋势是航运公司的下跌。 日本航运股指数周一下跌6.51%，是东京证券交易所33个行业分指数中表现最差的板块。川崎汽船下跌8.6%，是日经指数中下跌最多的股票。相反，迅销公司则上涨了0.62%，在个股中对日经指数的提振作用最大。
