Asian equity markets closed in green on Thursday, taking cues from a positive finish in Wall Street overnight after the Federal Reserve raised its target federal funds rate to a range of 0.25 to 0.5 percent. The rationale behind the move, the first since 2006, - Labor market has considerably improved this year and the central bank is confident of inflation rising over the medium term towards its 2 percent objective. China stocks ended higher as risk appetite improved after the Federal Reserve raised rates, as expected, removing a major source of uncertainty about the US central bank's policy.
