Japanese markets end on a flat note
Bank of Japan Governor Kazuo Ueda said the central bank is getting closer to attaining its inflation target, fueling market expectations of an interest-rate rise at next week's meeting.
The Nikkei average slipped 0.10 percent to 50,602.80 while the broader Topix index settled 0.12 percent higher at 3,389.02.
Honda Motor jumped 3.3 percent and Toyota Motor added 1.6 percent on hopes that a weaker yen could boost their overseas earnings.
