Asian markets ended on a mixed note on Monday as investors awaited the outcome of the US Federal Reserve and the Bank of Japan meetings due this week. Political tensions in the Middle East and Hong Kong also kept risk-appetite in check. Chinese shares ended up as investors watched the US Trade Representative's public hearings on the Trump administration's plans to impose fresh tariffs on Chinese-made goods, starting June 19. Further, Hong Kong shares ended higher after the territory's leader Carrie Lam climbed down on a bill that would have allowed extradition to China.
