Asian markets settled mostly higher on Monday, with Chinese, Taiwan and South Korean markets closing for holiday. Japan’s Nikkei average jumped to a record high, while the yen touched a fresh low since early August as pro-business leader Sanae Takaichi's victory in the ruling Liberal Democratic Party leadership race stoked bets on a revival in big spending and loose monetary policy. However, some gains were limited as the US government shutdown put the release of key economic data, including monthly jobs numbers, on hold.
