Although it made no new spending announcements on Monday, the Chinese Cabinet's planning office promised to speed up simpler lending and other programs. In the first half, economic growth fell to 2.5% from a year earlier, or less than half the stated annual goal.

In a report, Yeap Jun Rong of IG stated that although the announcement may "give a short-term uplift" to sentiment, investors "ultimately want to see a better rebound."

The Nikkei 225 in Tokyo increased by 0.1% to 27,643.06 while the Shanghai Composite Index increased by 1.1% to 3,235.57. Hong Kong's Hang Seng dropped by 0.2% to 19,177.70.

After Australia's central bank increased its benchmark lending rate by 0.5 percentage points to 2.35%, its highest level since 2015, and announced that additional rate hikes were likely, Sydney's S&P-ASX 200 fell 0.3% to 6,833.80.

In contrast to India's Sensex, which began down less than 0.1% at 59,230.54, the Kospi in Seoul increased by 0.2% to 2,408.55. Markets in Southeast Asia increased as New Zealand fell.
