Asian markets closed mostly higher on Tuesday, tracked by Wall Street's overnight gains on the back of a renewed tech rally and expectations of a corona virus relief package. Though, hopes for a vaccine for the corona virus were shaken after Johnson & Johnson said the Company had temporarily paused further dosing in all its Covid-19 vaccine candidate clinical trials including the Phase 3 ENSEMBLE trial due to an unexplained illness in a study participant. Chinese shares ended higher after China reported its exports jumped nearly 10% in dollar terms in September as its economy recovered from the pandemic. Japanese shares ended higher after reports that Japanese Prime Minister Yoshihide Suga will order his government to compile extra economic stimulus measures as early as in November. Trading in Hong Kong was suspended due to Typhoon Nangka.
