Asian equity markets ended mostly in green on Wednesday, led by a surge in energy companies after oil climbed above $52 per barrel. Japanese stocks ended up, with export-oriented shares receiving a boost from a weaker yen. Meanwhile, investors remained cautious in the wake of President-elect Donald Trump's charge that a strong dollar is hurting the economy. Trump's remarks sparked a selloff in the US currency, adding to earlier weakness after British Prime Minister Theresa May confirmed a ‘hard’ exit from the European Union.
