Asian markets exhibit mixed trend in early deals on Tuesday. While, China and Hong Kong stocks are higher, inspired by a record-setting session on Wall Street where investors bet on the passage of sweeping tax legislation that could lift corporate earnings next year. Though, the Japanese market is lower despite the positive cues overnight from Wall Street amid optimism about US tax reform. Among the other Asian markets, Singapore, and Indonesia are also higher. Bucking the trend, South Korea, Taiwan and Malaysia are modestly lower.
