Stock market: lower opening in Tokyo (-1.05%)

(ANSA) - TOKYO, MAY 12 - The Tokyo Stock Exchange begins its session in decline, following the contraction recorded on Wall Street and the new correction of the Nasdaq technology list, after alarming data on inflation in the United States in April, close to highs in 40 years.

    The Nikkei benchmark index shows a decline of 1.05% to 25,939.02, and a loss of 274 points.

On the foreign exchange market, the process of devaluing the yen against the dollar, at 129.70, and against the euro at 136.30, temporarily comes to a halt.
