Japan's Nikkei average (.N225) fell 0.4 percent while MSCI's broadest index of Asia-Pacific shares outside Japan .MIAPJ0000PUS was off 0.05 percent. Investors were cautious after the U.S. S&P 500 (.SPX) lost 2.7 percent last week, its biggest weekly decline since the week ending June 1, 2012, hitting two-month lows.
