Asian equity markets ended mixed on Tuesday as weak overnight cues from Wall Street and Europe as well as the oil price volatility kept investors in a defensive mode ahead of central bank meetings in the US and Japan. The two-day FOMC meeting gets underway later today, with traders waiting for clues as to the probability of a June rate hike. Chinese shares reversed early losses to end slightly higher, as a rally in healthcare and real estate shares offset initial gloom triggered by falling commodity prices in the wake of a government crackdown on speculation. Japanese shares fell for a second straight day as the yen held Monday's gains against the dollar despite speculation the Bank of Japan will expand stimulus at its April 27-28 policy meeting.
