Asian markets edge higher with eyes on Fed policy meeting


HONG KONG (AFP): Asian stocks edged up Wednesday (Sept 16) but investors trod a cautious path following a broadly positive start to the week, with focus on the outcome of the Federal Reserve's latest policy meeting.

Markets have enjoyed something of a respite from the roller-coaster ride seen earlier in the month, which saw a rout of previously surging technology firms, as vaccine hopes and upbeat economic data offset worries about fresh virus spikes and new containment measures.
