HONG KONG (AFP) – Asian stock markets were mixed on Thursday as Shanghai revived after China’s rate hike put the region on edge, while oil prices again rose due to worries about Egypt. The Shanghai Composite Index ended the session up 1.59 percent, or 455.41 points, at 2,818.16, led by a surge among car makers after they reported strong January sales. Sydney’s S&P/ASX 200 ended up 0.19 percent, or 9.6 points, at 4,914.4, following upbeat employment data and ahead of results from miner Rio Tinto.
