Asian equity markets ended mixed on Thursday after a dismal session on Wall Street overnight. Chinese shares recovered from an early sell-off to end on a flat note after an article posted on the transport ministry's website revealed the government plans to invest around 4.7 trillion yuan ($724 billion) in transport infrastructure projects over the next three years. Japanese shares eked out modest gains, as the yen weakened slightly and official data showed Japan posted a current account surplus of 2.980 trillion yen in March, the largest monthly surplus in nine years on the back of an improved trade balance and strong returns from overseas investments. The surplus doubled in fiscal 2015 from the previous year.
