Asian equity benchmarks trading in green in the early deals on Tuesday, as the encouraging manufacturing data from US and China, and the progressing trade talks of the world's two largest economies, eased concerns on global economic slowdown. Japan's Nikkei also led a positive trend with the optimism that the Wall Street indices marked positive territory for the third day in a row, and also on a weaker yen. However, stocks gave up some of their gains followed by the report on unexpected decrease in US retail sales in February.
Nikkei 225 increased 39.81 points or 0.19% to 21,548.84, Taiwan Weighted up 58.20 points or 0.55% to 10,700.83, KOSPI Shares climbed 6.18 points or 0.29% to 2,174.46, Hang Seng jumped 28.03 points or 0.09% to 29,590.05, Straits Times climbed 16.61 points or 0.51% to 3,267.12, Shanghai Composite up by 12.95 points or 0.41% to 3,183.31,Jakarta Composite hiked 15.66 points or 0.24% to 6,468.27, and FTSE Bursa Malaysia KLCI increased by 7.23 points or 0.44% to 1,635.89.
