<p>Stocks have been volatile as investors fret the coronavirus outbreak will derail the global economy but in those declines some see opportunities to buy.</p>

<p>Japan’s Nikkei 225 index recovered from early losses, gaining 1.4% to 21,441.56, while the Shanghai Composite index rose 2.9% to 2,965.11.</p>
<p>The benchmark for the smaller exchange, in Shenzhen, jumped 3.4%.</p>
<p>South Korea’s Kospi climbed 1% to 2,007.57 and the Hang Seng in Hong Kong jumped 0.9% to 26,371.21.</p>
<p>But shares fell in Australia, where the S&;P ASX/200 lost 0.8% to 6,388.40 and in Taiwan, which fell 0.6%. Stocks were mostly higher in Southeast Asia, and Bangkok’s benchmark surged 0.9%.</p>
<p>“It may well be a case of news being not as bad as it could have been,” Jeffrey Halley of Oanda said.</p>
<p>“Today’s rallies across Asia have a definite relief rally look to them. Measured against the scale of last week’s sell-offs, the bounces this morning are small.”</p>

<p>The damage from the week of relentless selling was eye-popping: The Dow Jones Industrial Average fell 3,583 points, or 12.4%.</p>
<p>Microsoft and Apple, the two most valuable companies in the S&;P 500, lost a combined 300 billion dollars (£235 billion).</p>
<p>In a sign of the severity of the concern about the possible economic blow, the price of oil sank 16%.</p>
