Asian shares rebound on upbeat earnings ( Jul-26-2012 03:31 Hrs IST )
Most of the Asian markets went home in green on Thursday tracking upbeat earnings results in the region and the United States. However investors were hopeful that central banks around the world will take more action to push the global economy. Eurozone fears eased slightly on hopes over the funding of future bailouts, which also supported markets to recover lost grounds. However, in Hong Kong, Sands China fell 5.4% after the casino operator reported a 40% year-on-year decline in second quarter, attributing the decline to a $100 million impairment loss on two land parcels in Macau.Asian IndicesLast TradeChange in PointsChange in %Shanghai Composite2,126.00-10.15 -0.47Hang Seng18,892.7915.460.08Jakarta Composite4,004.783.940.10KLSE Composite1,623.91-11.18 -0.68Nikkei 2258,443.1077.200.92Straits Times3,004.5713.650.46KOSPI Composite1,782.4713.160.74Taiwan Weighted6,970.69-8.44-0.12
