China shares rose more than 1% Tuesday, underpinned by gainers in new energy and healthcare stocks, as investors cheered upbeat corporate earnings.
The blue-chip CSI300 index rose 1.0% at 5,094.73, while the Shanghai Composite Index added 0.6% at 3,456.68. Both indexes were up for a 3rd session running.
Japan’s TOPIX ended lower Tuesday, dragged down by stocks that went ex-dividend, while the Nikkei inched up as investors bought back the benchmark after its underperformance against TOPIX following the Bank of Japan’s decision to only buy TOPIX-linked ETFs.
The TOPIX lost 0.78% to 1,977.86, while the Nikkei index came + 0.16% to end at 29,432.70.
Australian shares fell Tuesday, investors were cautious about placing big bets as more COVID-19 cases were reported in Queensland after the state capital Brisbane was put under lockdown.
The S&P/ASX 200 index finished 0.9% lower to 6.738.40. New Zealand’s benchmark S&P/NZX 50 index gained 0.6% to finish at 12,446.76.
