10:30am Asia Update
Japanese and Chinese stock markets
stood out against a mostly lackluster backdrop in Asia on Tuesday, with a
deal to give global investors easier access to China's USD 3.9 trillion stock
market partially offsetting worries about declining oil prices.
Chinese shares continued to
outperform and were at three-year highs. They added 1.3 percent on top of the
previous session's 2.5 percent surge after officials announced on Monday that
a November 17 would mark the beginning of a tie-up that will allow global
investors to buy Chinese stocks from Hong Kong.
MSCI's broadest index of
Asia-Pacific shares outside Japan erased early losses and eked out a 0.1
percent gain. Japan's Nikkei stock average added 1.4 percent, extending gains
as the yen turned lower in afternoon trade.
Sentiment was also boosted by the Bank Of Japan's move on Monday to purchase
38 billion yen (USD 331.2 million) of exchange-traded funds (ETFs), as part
of its recently beefed-up economic stimulus campaign. The news was announced
after markets closed on Monday, reports Reuters.
