Asian markets ended lower on Monday on doubts about when the world's two largest economies may end a 16-month trade war. Chinese shares ended down on concerns over slowing growth and uncertainty around a proposed US-China trade deal after comments by President Trump that he hasn't agreed to a tariff rollback with China. Meanwhile, inflation data from China proved to be a mixed bag, with the consumer price index rising at its fastest pace in almost eight years, while a measure of producer prices fell the most in more than three years in October. Besides, Hong Kong shares closed lower after political tensions flared up in the city once again. Moreover, Japanese shares declined after data showed the country's core machinery orders fell for a third straight month in September, raising doubts over whether the recent strength in capital goods shipments would last.
