The Asian markets ended mostly in green on Tuesday, with China’s main stock index rising to its highest in almost seven years, breaking through a key psychological resistance level to raise investors’ hopes that the market has resumed a bull run begun midway through last year. The Bank of Japan board decided by an 8 to 1 vote to leave the bank’s policy target unchanged while revising down its near-term inflation outlook on weak energy prices as expected. The collapse of crude oil prices last year has clouded the prospect for the central bank plan to anchor 2% inflation in about two years from April 2013, when it launched aggressive easing. That has caused the BoJ to revise down its near-term inflation outlook. At the same time however, the BoJ sees the economic recovery intact. Japan’s index of leading economic indicators rose to a seasonally adjusted 105.5, from 105.1 in the preceding month. Hong Kong Unemployment Rate remained unchanged at a seasonally adjusted 3.3% compared to its preceding month.
