The Asian markets closed in green on Monday, with Chinese stocks touching seven year high, as gains in the Real Estate Investments & Services, Oil Equipment Services & Distribution and Life Insurance sectors led shares higher. Bank of Japan Governor Haruhiko Kuroda’s optimism that he can meet a 2 percent inflation target is getting a reality check at the nation’s cash registers. A report showed gains in consumer prices excluding fresh food slowed for a seventh month in February to a one-year low. The cost of cereals, household durable goods and rents fell last month from a year ago. Japan’s bond market is also betting that Kuroda won’t be able to meet his inflation goal during the fiscal year starting April. Japan’s industrial production fell to a seasonally adjusted -3.4%, from 3.7% in the preceding month. Thai Industrial Production rose to a seasonally adjusted 3.55%, from -1.31% in the preceding month.
