Asian Market Update : Epic Research Malaysia

Asian shares and the dollar both lost more ground on Friday as investors began the new quarter in a cautious mood, with glimmers of life in China's economy offset by a darkening mood in Japan.

Activity in China's vast manufacturing sector expanded in March for the first time in nine months as the official Purchasing Managers' Index (PMI) surprised at 50.2.

A private version of the PMI also beat forecasts by rising to its highest in 13 months.

Yet markets seemed underwhelmed and shares in Shanghai drifted 0.6 per cent lower.
