Asia Mixed In Early Trade; Nikkei Up 1.2%, ASX Down 0.4%

Asia markets were mixed in early trade Wednesday morning, shrugging off modest US losses from Tuesday. 

Traders await a speech from President Donald Trump to a joint session of the US Congress in which remarks on tax and spending policies will be key against a backdrop of heightened Fed rate hike views. 

Japan's Nikkei 225 traded up 1.21 percent, while the Topix gained 0.99 percent. Japanese export stocks received a boost from a relatively weaker yen that traded at 113.14 to the dollar at 8:17 a.m. HK/SIN, weakening from levels below 112.20. 

Among key exporters, Toyota shares rose 1.37 percent, Sony shares were up 1.32 percent and Panasonic added 1.42 percent.
