Asian markets ended on a mixed note on Thursday amid concerns about stalled negotiations over a new round of US fiscal stimulus. United States President Donald Trump has casted doubt on the prospects of a bipartisan, multi-trillion-dollar stimulus deal before US Election Day. Japanese shares ended down as the yen firmed up after top United States intelligence officials said that both Russia and Iran have obtained US voter information and taken actions to influence public opinion ahead of the November 3 presidential election. Further, concerns over surging Covid-19 pandemic cases worldwide with the death of a volunteer participating in Covid-19 vaccine clinical trials also dented market sentiment.
