Asian markets mixed as torrid week draws to close


HONG KONG (AFP): Asian markets were mixed on Friday (Jan 28), at the end of a broadly damaging week for global investors as the Federal Reserve gave notice that the days of ultra-cheap cash were coming to an end quicker than some had envisaged.

Rising tensions between Russia and the West over the Ukraine crisis are adding to the increasingly fractious mood on trading floors, where a selling frenzy this month has wiped around US$7 trillion off valuations around the world.
