Asian equity markets ended mostly in red on Wednesday, with traders refraining from making big moves ahead of US Federal Reserve's monetary policy statement, due later in the day. Chinese shares ended roughly flat as investors returning from the Labour Day holiday braced for trade talks between US and Chinese officials amid worries about economic health. Further, Japanese shares ended lower amid caution ahead of the Federal Reserve’s policy decision and US jobs data, although the dollar’s rise against the yen and positive sentiments toward tech stocks helped curb some of the losses.
