20 Jan 2022 Evaluate
Most of the Asian equity benchmarks traded in green on Thursday, shrugging off drops in the US markets, bolstered by the some short covering after previous session’s tumble and on persisting climb in crude oil rates. The markets were also boosted by a cut in benchmark mortgage rates by China to shore up the sagging economy. China cut its mortgage reference rate for the first time in nearly two years. Chinese monetary authorities have signalled that they will take more easing steps this year to shore up slowing growth in the world's second-largest economy. Meanwhile, the Ministry of Finance said Japan posted a merchandise trade deficit of 582.2 billion yen in December. That beat forecasts for a shortfall of 784.1 billion yen following the downwardly revised deficit of 955.6 billion yen in November (originally -954.8 billion yen). Exports climbed 17.5 percent on year, exceeding expectation for a gain of 16.0 percent following the 20.5 percent increase in the previous month. Imports were up 41.1 percent on year versus expectations for 42.8 percent and down from 43.8 percent a month earlier.
