Meanwhile, Seoul shares rose for a third straight day on Thursday as a gush of offshore buying broke a stubborn resistance line, with global sentiment bullish while, Chinese Shanghai gained about two percent, led by financial companies after a report said banks’ dividend payout ratio could be cut. Moreover, Taiwan stocks ended 1.37 percent higher at a five-month closing high, topped by LCD makers and computer counters.
