Asian markets trade mostly higher in early deals on Wednesday

22 Oct 2014 Evaluate

All the Asian equity benchmarks barring FTSE Bursa Malaysia KLCI are trading higher in the early deals on Wednesday, tracking cues from Wall Street, where stocks posted strong gains overnight amid speculation of fresh stimulus from the European Central Bank and an upbeat US home sales report. On the regional front, the Japanese stock market rose on a weaker yen triggering some hectic buying across the board. In economy news, Japan had a merchandise trade deficit of 958.3 billion yen in September. That missed forecasts for a shortfall of 780.0 billion yen following the 949.7 billion yen deficit in August. Chinese stocks surged after the nation’s largest electricity producer reported earnings that beat estimates. Speculation that the European Central Bank will announce further stimulus soon too contributed to the rally in the market. Among other markets in the Asia-Pacific region, Hong Kong, Singapore, Taiwan, Indonesia and South Korea are notably higher, while Shanghai is up marginally. Malaysia is trading lower.

Nikkei 225 spurted by 263.23 points or 1.78% to 15,067.51, Hang Seng added 302.57 points or 1.31% to 23,391.15, KOSPI Index climbed 16.65 points or 0.87% to 1,931.93, Straits Times increased by 21.69 points or 0.68% to 3,202.74, Jakarta Composite jumped 46.24 points or 0.92% to 5,075.58, Shanghai Composite surged 8.82 points or 0.38% to 2,348.48 and Taiwan Weighted was up by 98.19 points or 1.13% to 8,752.83.

On the flip side, FTSE Bursa Malaysia KLCI was down by 6.92 points or 0.38% to 1,796.22.
