Asian markets ended higher on Friday, on track for weekly gains, shrugging off global losses logged after the European Central Bank eased aggressively but suggested it was running out of room to cut interest rates even if other stimulus options remained. Japanese stocks ended higher as oil prices rebounded from overnight losses and the yen weakened following some initial strength. China stocks ended slightly higher, reversing initial losses, as the banking sector regained some composure amid expectations that China's securities regulator would provide some market-friendly comments at a press conference to be held in Beijing on Saturday.
