Abstract:Asian markets ended mixed, but mostly higher as investors across the region reacted to the news that President Biden and U.S. lawmakers struck a tentative deal to raise the debt ceiling in the U.S. The deal will be voted on later this week and if passed will allow the U.S. government to avoid a potentially catastrophic financial scenario.
