Asian markets are exhibiting mixed trend in the early deals on Wednesday, with upward momentum from a record day on Wall Street and buoyant oil prices offset by investors caution ahead of the Fed's upcoming interest rate decision. Meanwhile, the Japanese market is advancing, with investors’ sentiments bolstered by the positive cues overnight from Wall Street and a weaker yen. Among the other Asian market, Taiwan, Shanghai, South Korea, and Malaysia are in negative territory. Bucking the trend, Indonesia, Hong Kong and Singapore are higher.
