Asian markets ended broadly higher on Thursday after touching three weeks high on improvement in global sentiment after a senior U.S. lawmaker said he was optimistic on reaching a budget deal before the end of the year to avoid a fiscal crisis. Japan's Nikkei went home with strong gains, as exporters were benefitted by the ongoing weakness in the yen, which boosted the outlook for export earnings. Meanwhile, Hong Kong market closed higher with blue-chip exporters amongst the most notable gainers. However, Chinese shares ended lower for the fourth-consecutive day.
