Asian stock markets are trading mostly higher on Tuesday, following the broadly positive cues from global markets overnight, as traders continued to pick up stocks at reduced levels following heavy selling last week. They are also concerned about the outlook for interest rates as recent economic data has led to worries the Federal Reserve will raise rates more than currently anticipated and hold rates at an elevated level for an extended period. Asian markets closed mostly lower on Monday.
