Asian markets ended mixed on Wednesday, tracking mixed cues overnight from Wall Street ahead of US inflation data due later in the day. Reports showing that China's consumer inflation rose more-than-expected in April, while factory inflation eased to the slowest in a year. Chinese and Hong Kong shares gained after China's securities watchdog pledged a variety of measures to shore up confidence in the region's worst-performing stock market, while signs of declining virus cases on the mainland also boosted sentiments.
