Asian markets are trading mostly in the green in early deals on Tuesday led by Japanese markets, up by around one and a half percent, with a weaker yen triggering some hectic buying at several counters. However, the mood is a bit cautious in the region, with investors looking ahead to the European Central Bank's monetary policy, due later this week. On the economic front, total labor cash earnings in Japan grew at a faster rate in July, defying expectations of a slow-down. Moreover, total earnings increased 2.6 percent year-over-year in July following the revised 1 percent rise in June.
