Asia stocks slip as suspense builds for China, Fed news

SYDNEY : Asian stocks were subdued on Wednesday as a lack of new stimulus steps from Beijing frustrated investors, who were also wondering just how hawkish the world's most powerful central banker would chose to be later in the session.

Japan's Nikkei inched up 0.1 per cent as the market consolidates three months of hefty gains. A survey showed morale at big Japanese manufacturers edged up in June to stay in positive territory for a second straight month.

That lack of urgency should limit any bounce in the yen and kept the dollar underpinned at 141.56 yen, only just off Tuesday's seven-month high of 142.26.
