Asian-Pacific benchmarks closed mixed, awaiting U.S. markets reopening on Tuesday closed for the Labor Day National holiday. The Nikkei was near a four-year high at intraday after the stocks opened higher, but later rebounded and eventually finished up 0.3%. Stocks were boosted by declining crude-oil prices and a poll by the Nikkei, suggesting that the ruling party may extend its current majority after the elections on Sept. 11. Across the region, Hong Kong’s Hang Seng remained almost flat, while South Korea’s Kospi shed 0.1%.
