Asian markets ended mostly higher on Monday as investors kept an eye on US fiscal stimulus negotiations, despite worries about surging corona virus infections across the globe. Chinese shares ended higher as the country returned from an eight day Mid-Autumn festival, while the offshore yuan fell after China’s central bank (PBoC) took steps to restrain a recent rally. Seoul shares ended higher in line with the government's decision to loosen quarantine measures against the new corona virus pandemic. Though, Japanese shares ended slightly lower as the yen strengthened and profit-booking by investors due to caution prevailed ahead of the earnings season.
