Chinese shares regained lost ground too, with the blue-chip index last up 0.38 per cent. Trump also soothed nerves when he tweeted: “China trade deal is fully intact. Hopefully they will continue to live up to the terms of the agreement.”

In the Asian afternoon trading session, the safe-haven yen slipped against the dollar to 107.13, while the euro was a shade higher at US$1.1266 .
