Asia shares surge after Wall St rally


HONG KONG: Asian markets rallied on Monday following a rise in New York at the end of last week, with Tokyo surging almost 4%, thanks also to a weaker yen.

However, while the gains will come as some relief after the ups and downs of last week, traders are nervously watching the release of Chinese economic growth data later in the week for fear of another weak figure.
