(CNN) — Asian and Pacific stock markets slid downward Tuesday after the U.S. House of Representatives failed to adopt a Wall Street bailout measure, triggering the largest point drop in U.S. market history.
The Japan’s Nikkei Index was down 4.64 percent while the Australian Securities Exchange fell 3.63 percent. The Hong Kong exchange dropped 3.36 percent.
