Asian equity markets ended mostly lower on Wednesday after oil prices declined in response to news a three-day strike by oil workers in Kuwait had been wound up. Shanghai stocks has their worst performance in eight weeks on Wednesday, tumbling more than 2 percent and breaching a key technical support level as investors who are increasingly worried about the economy took profits from a long rally. Japanese shares pared early gains to end slightly firmer, as oil prices retreated in Asian deals and the yen strengthened in the wake of encouraging trade balance data and comments from BOJ Governor Haruhiko Kuroda that there is scope for pushing the interest on excess cash parked by banks further into negative territory.
