Asia tentative as mixed China data stoke uncertainty
[Reuters] - Asian markets were lost for direction on Wednesday after a reading on Chinese growth held up better than many had feared, only for data on retail sales and industrial output to disappoint. The mixed bag was mirrored in the market reaction with Chinese shares edging higher while commodity currencies such as the Australian dollar took a hit from signs of softer demand. MSCI's broadest index of Asia-Pacific shares outside Japan was off 0.2 percent, while Japan's Nikkei (.N225) was all but flat.
