Asian markets ended mostly in green on Monday following Friday’s US selloff and another plunge for oil. Investors kept a close watch on the developments on the US-China trade front ahead of the upcoming G20 summit in Buenos Aires, Argentina, at the end of the week. Traders also looked ahead to remarks by Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell and the minutes of the Fed's latest monetary policy meeting later this week for clues on US monetary policy. Japanese shares ended higher as traders returned to their desks after a long holiday weekend. However, Chinese shares ended slightly lower as investors braced for crucial talks between the US and China at the G20 summit in Argentina this week.
