Asian shares traded cautiously and bonds nursed small losses on Tuesday as investors braced for an eventful week that includes central bank meetings, a slew of earnings reports and key U.S. economic data.

Markets will also grapple with a flood of U.S. economic data, culminating in Friday's payrolls report for January. Investors see signs of weakening in the labour market as a key factor in bringing down high inflation. The two-year yield , which rises with traders' expectations of higher Fed fund rates, touched 4.2402% compared with a U.S. close of 4.261%.
