Japan's markets are closed Tuesday due to the
Constitution Day holiday. The Nikkei 225 finished down 3.11 percent on Monday,
weighed by a surge in the yen against the dollar.
In Australia, shares of ANZ tacked on 1.01
percent, erasing early losses of as much as 4.0 percent, despite the
heavyweight bank reporting its fiscal first-half profit tumbled more than 20
percent, coming in below expectations, and spurring the bank to cut its
dividend .
That follows a
selloff in banks Monday after Westpac's earnings also missed expectations,
which had knocked ANZ's shares down 2.2 percent.For Free Trial & Join Services For All Segment Click Here
