SINGAPORE : Asian stocks gave up morning gains on Tuesday after creeping to two-week highs, as investors stayed cautious amid the standoff over the U.S. debt ceiling, while awaiting industrial sector surveys in Europe and the United States.MSCI's broadest index of Asia-Pacific shares outside Japan was down 0.03 per cent by 0535 GMT, after touching its highest since May 9 a few hours earlier.
