Most of the Asian equity benchmarks are trading up in the early deals on Tuesday, after Chinese trade data minimized risk concerns generated by a continuing slide in crude oil prices, while the dollar fell to a one-month low against the safe-haven yen. Japan average fell 2.0 percent after a long weekend as declines in U.S. stocks and weakening oil prices dampened risk appetite, while a strong yen hurt exporters. Among other markets in the Asia-Pacific region, South Korea, Singapore is trading marginally lower. Shanghai, Indonesia, Hong Kong, Taiwan and Malaysia are up with modest gains.
