Asian-Pacific benchmarks recovered from last-week sharp declines, following a securities probe of the Internet portal Livedoor which sent the Nikkei and the other regional bourses in the negative. Investors recharged with positive expectations and charged back into Asian equities. South Korea’s Kospi led the gainers, surging 2.3%, followed by the Nikkei, up 1.9% at 15,648.89. Taiwan’s Weighted index advanced 1.1%, while Shanghai Composite lost 0.3%. |
