Supported by strong employment data from the U.S., Asian markets rose sharply on Monday amid positive signs from Europe improved sentiment, lifting Hong Kong's Hang Seng Index to near a three-month high. The statement from European Central Bank officials that bank could intervene and buy the bonds of struggling euro-zone countries without unanimous approval, also raised hopes that a bond buying program is still a possibility. However, investors still looking from more positive triggers ahead of China’s economic data for July, with inflation figures out on Thursday and its trade balance to be released on Friday.
