Asian equity markets ended mostly lower on Tuesday as a strengthening dollar sapped demand for emerging market assets and investors kept an eye on Italian politics after the country's two populist parties announced a joint agreement naming Giuseppe Conte, 53, as the next prime minister. Japanese shares fell from 3 1/2-month highs reached the previous day, with financials leading declines as bond yields peaked after hitting a three-year high last week. Chinese shares ended on a flat note as gains in healthcare and telecom stocks were offset by declines in real estate firms. Meanwhile, markets in South Korea and Hong Kong are closed for holidays.
