India, Sept. 15 -- Asian stocks ended mostly lower on Tuesday amid heightened Middle East tensions and concerns over the pace of artificial intelligence development.

Investors also digested a slew of Chinese data and looked ahead to Wednesday's Federal Reserve policy decision and Friday's Bank of Japan rate decision for directional cues.

Regional bonds followed U.S. Treasuries lower, with Japan's 10-year yields surpassing 3 percent. The U.S. dollar held near a two-week high after the 10-year Treasury yields hit a 16-year peak on hawkish Fed bets.
