Asian markets were mostly higher on Tuesday as traders digested better-than-expected industrial output data from Japan and worse-than-expected data from South Korea.
The Nikkei 225 was up 0.49 percent after trading flat earlier in the session, while in South Korea, the Kospi climbed 0.39 percent.
Australia's ASX 200 was 0.42 percent lower, weighed by its energy subindex, which shed 1.35 percent, but that follows a 5.6 percent gain over the past four sessions.
Chinese mainland markets were performing better, with the Shanghai Composite up 2.12 percent and the Shenzhen composite up 2.418 percent. In Hong Kong, the Hang Seng index was 0.94 percent higher.
