Asian equity markets ended mostly higher on Friday, with Japanese shares resumed trading a day after a holiday. Otherwise, markets lacked cues from Wall Street, which was closed for the Thanksgiving holiday in the United States on Thursday, and was set to hold a shortened trading session on Friday. Japanese shares ended higher as expectations that the Bank of Japan would buy more exchange-traded funds offset drops in automakers. Meanwhile, Chinese markets closed slightly in green after a big sell-off in the previous day.
