Asian markets ended higher on Monday as optimism around progress in Covid-19 vaccine trials shrugged off reports of renewed lockdowns in several countries. Chinese shares ended up after the country's financial regulators vowed to adopt a zero-tolerance approach for misconduct following a recent string of bond defaults, and will punish all kinds of debt evasion to protect investors. Further, South Korean shares climbed after data showed that South Korea's exports rose 11.1% YoY in the first 20 days of November, with outbound shipments of memory chips soaring 21.9% over the cited period. Markets in Japan were closed for the Labor Thanksgiving Day.
