Asian markets ended mixed on Thursday, as investors shrugged off US President Donald Trump's State of the Union address and looking for progress in the US-China trade dispute, ahead of crucial talks in Beijing next week. Japanese shares ended lower despite SoftBank announcing a share buyback following the company's release of strong quarterly earnings. Meanwhile, markets in Taiwan, China and Hong Kong were closed for the Lunar New Year holidays.
