Asia stocks, currencies mixed as dollar stabilises; Fed easing bets build


Asian markets traded mixed on Wednesday as the U.S. dollar steadied after posting its steepest one-day decline in nearly a month, with traders weighing a softer U.S. inflation print that raised bets on monetary easing by the Federal Reserve.

Taiwan stocks rose as much as 1.74% to their highest since March 28, while shares in Indonesia advanced 1.78% to their best session in over a month, reacting late to the U.S.-China trade breakthrough during the weekend.
