Japanese stocks fall in early week
The Japanese stock market indices opened the week with a significant decline, led by technology sector shares, due to expectations of an extended period of rising U.S. interest rates following strong labor market data and geopolitical tensions in the Middle East. The Nikkei index also reached its lowest point since March, with shares of SoftBank Group and Maxeon Solar Technologies falling by 6.06% and 8.01%, respectively. On the economic front, data showed growth in the Japanese economy during the first quarter, though it was slower than previous estimates. The dollar's exchange rate against the yen remained stable at 160.27 yen.
