Stocks in the Asian region were seen swinging in between losses and gains on Wednesday, with Japan\u2019s gross domestic product report (GDP) boosting the region\u2019s stocks while shares in China fell after the nation\u2019s industrial output figures missed estimates.<\/span><\/p>\n

The contraction was the sharpest in five years and was mainly due to the sharp drop in consumption after the government increased the sales tax from 5% to 8% in April.<\/p>
