Asian shares are trading mixed amid caution about the war in Iran

Asian shares traded mixed early Tuesday as markets cooled after eight days of gains, with uncertainty over efforts to end the war in Iran. Indices like Japan's Nikkei 225 fell 0.9%, while others showed minor gains or declines. U.S.-Iran talks aimed at ending the conflict and reopening the Strait of Hormuz influenced oil prices, which fell following the discussions.
