But Australia and Hong Kong were the odd ones out, both pushed lower by domestic factors. In Tokyo, the benchmark Nikkei 225 average rose 1.59 percent, or 175.79 points, to 11,204.49, while the broader capital-weighted Topix index added 15.23 points or 1.45 percent to 1068.69. Petrochemical shares were mainly higher as tension in the Middle East pushed crude prices to a six-month peak in New York. Airline shares slipped on worries about fuel prices. Like South Korea, Taiwan and Singapore moved higher on tech strength.

Time.com People Fortune EW InStyle Business 2.0 Asian currencies rise against slow dollar SYDNEY, Australia (CNN) Asian currencies strengthened against the US dollar Tuesday as the greenback continued its long term decline. The yen stood at 123.60 in late afternoon trade Tuesday. The Korean won was at 1,223.3 out of Seoul. The Australian dollar hit a 20-month high at 57.5 U.S. cents Tuesday. Driving the rising Asian currencies is a continuing, slow depreciation of the US dollar against most of the floating currencies. The dollar has tumbled amid worries about a decline in fund flows into dollar assests. This was linked to uncertainty in the U.S. about earnings, corporate accounting and overseas conflicts which has caused the stock market to sink to levels not seen in months. "The mighty dollar is softening," said Andy Xie, Morgan Stanley economist in a market commentary this week.

Japan closed narrowly down, with Hong Kong following suit. Only Australia provided a bright spot, snapping a four-day losing streak. Even the freeing up of China's B shares fizzled. Stocks in Shanghai and Shenzhen slumped after a wild day's trade. In Tokyo, stocks lost ground as a firmer yen dealt a blow to exporters, particularly automakers. That cancelled out tech gains inspired by Nasdaq's 1.3 percent gain overnight. The benchmark Nikkei average was effectively flat, down a scant 0.30 point at 13,261.84. That doesn't register in percentage terms. The broader Topix index lost 0.1 percent to 1,310.09.
