On Tuesday, Asian stock markets were quite mixed, reacting to a flat close on Wall Street because market participants looked for the next catalyst following France's presidential election. Meanwhile, crude soared on hopes that OPEC supply cuts are going to be extended.

The South Korean stock market is unavailable due to Tuesday's presidential election, where liberal Moon Jae-in is widely supposed to become a winner.

On Tuesday, the Korean won moderately dipped, with the greenback buying 1,133.34 won.
