Asian stocks closed in green on Friday for the last trading day of the quarter, following a rally in US stocks overnight. Japanese stocks ended higher, with index heavyweight stocks rising and technology firms such as Tokyo Electron jumping in sympathy with a rebound in their US counterparts. Further, Chinese shares ended slightly higher, but posted their worst quarterly losses in two years, as the country’s fund managers slashed equity exposure amid China-US trade tensions. Meanwhile, markets in Hong Kong, Singapore, and Indonesia are closed for the Good Friday public holiday.
