Asian equity markets were mostly lower following a flat lead from the US where focus centered on earnings and stimulus plans. Stocks dipped on Thursday as a spike in short-term Chinese interest rates fanned worries about policy tightening in the world's second-largest economy, although improving corporate earnings and easing market volatility helped stem losses.
