TOKYO (dpa-AFX) - South Korea will on Wednesday release March figures for imports, exports and trade balance, highlighting a light day for Asia-Pacific economic activity.
In February, imports were up 13.2 percent on year and export surged an annual 48.3 percent for a trade surplus of $25.74 billion.
Japan will provide February numbers for core machinery orders, with forecasts suggesting a decline of 1.1 percent on month and a gain of 8.5 percent on year. That follows the 5.5 percent monthly drop and the 13.7 percent yearly increase in January.
