Asian markets ended higher on Tuesday as Chinese markets reversed some of their previous session's plunge on the back of stimulus measures announced by China to support the economy and markets amid the deadly corona virus outbreak. As the death toll in mainland China from the new type of virus rose to 425, China has agreed to allow US health experts into the mainland as part of a WHO effort to help fight the corona virus. Further, Japanese stocks closed higher by tracking a rebound in Shanghai shares, although exporters ended broadly lower on a slightly stronger yen.
