Asian markets display mixed performance on Tuesday

17 Apr 2012 Evaluate

The Asian equity markets are showing a mixed chart in Tuesday’s trading session as investors lacked conviction to take large bets following inconclusive cues from the overnight US markets which ended on a mixed note. After the sharp plunge in last trading session, some markets showed signs of recovery on short covering however, the rest continued to drift lower. On one hand the better than expected retail sales spurred optimism while on the other the concern of spreading European sovereign-debt crisis after the cost to insure Spanish and Portuguese debt advanced, undermined sentiments.

Benchmark in Taiwan remained the top laggard in the space with over a percent loss while Chinese and Hong Kong shares too traded on a weak note as banking stocks got dragged, offsetting bargain buying in some port operators and insurers. On the other hand, the Japanese markets traded with marginal gains after the country said that it will provide $60 billion to the IMF's effort to expand its resources and shield the global economy against any deepening of Europe's debt crisis.

Shanghai Composite declined 10.16 points or 0.43% to 2,346.87, Hang Seng slipped 140.91 points or 0.68% to 20,469.73, Straits Times Index shed 9.46 points or 0.32% to 2,982.66, Seoul Composite dropped 3.82 points or 0.19% to 1,988.81 and Taiwan Weighted plunged 88.84 points or 1.15% to 7,641.02.

On the flipside, Jakarta Composite advanced 14.30 points or 0.34% to 4,160.88, KLSE Composite gained 1.81 points or 0.11% to 1,599.32 and Nikkei 225 rose 16.95 points or 0.18% to 9,487.59.
