Stocks in China attempted to rebound amid receding fears of global crude oil supply disruptions.
The Hang Seng Index edged up 0.1%, and the mainland-focused CSI 300 Index inched higher 0.5%.
Market sentiment recovered but remained fragile as investors hoped that the U.S. would provide safe passage to crude oil and natural gas products through the Strait of Hormuz in the immediate future.
Brent crude oil prices hovered at $87.46 a barrel, despite the IEA proposing the largest release of coordinated oil reserves in their history.
Across Asia, benchmark indexes rebounded in Japan and South Korea amid recovering sentiment and a potential resumption of energy supplies through the Strait of Hormuz.
