Asian markets closed on mixed note as earlier gains post foreboding US jobs figures and hopes for upcoming Chinese economic data were countervail by global economic worries. Japan’s Nikkei extended losses with drop in telecom giant, Softbank and Fast Retailing, a company behind the Uniqlo chain of clothing shops. However, China's Shanghai Composite ended higher, despite cautions ahead of trade and inflation numbers due to be released on Saturday and Monday. Snapping a four-session losing streak, Kospi index ended marginally up on Friday, while Korean stocks closed almost unaltered.
