China effect pushes Asia higher


Dollar slides, commodity prices soar on the first session of the week

Asian markets ended mostly higher today as the global risk appetite stayed strong amid falling US dollar and strong commodity prices. Investors eyed the strong pick up in China's purchasing managers' index and looked ahead for possible new monetary stimulus from the U.S. Federal Reserve, which would keep the global liquidity conditions easy. The Fed is expected to unveil a new round of bond purchases, also known as quantitative easing, at this week's policy-setting meeting on November 2-3 to bolster the economy. The US Stocks were little changed in the last session. Dow rose 4.54 points to 11,118.49 After the US Commerce Department said that gross domestic product increased at an anemic annual rate of 2.0% in the third quarter following the 1.7% growth that was seen in the second quarter.
