Japanese stocks slide 3 percent
The Japanese stock indices fell by more than 3% at the close of trading, influenced by significant sell-offs in the technology sector stocks on Wall Street and recent losses in American equities, amid declining hopes of reaching a peace agreement in the Middle East. The decline was led by Furukawa Electric's stock, which dropped by 13.7%, and Quixia Holdings, which fell by 12.60%. This coincided with a more than 4 basis points decline in the yield of the 10-year Japanese government bonds, to 2.896%. The US dollar against the yen also depreciated by 0.25%, reaching 159.19 yen. Additionally, the Nikkei 225 index decreased by 3.15% to 65,326 points, and the Topix index declined by 3.10% to 4,012 points.
