The Tokyo Stock Exchange begins the session with a decline, with sales focusing on technology. At the opening, the Nikkei index lost 1.24% to 38,746.96, with a loss of 485 points.
On the currency market, the yen updates its record against the dollar, reaching its lowest level in 34 years at 154.20, and loses ground against the euro, at 163.80. geopolitical tensions in the Middle East and the possibility of an expansion of the conflict between Iran and Israel do not ease. It is unclear whether the market will be able to make up its losses by the end of the day, or if it will be forced to take further steps to prevent a further fall in the market value of Japanese stocks. It's unclear whether there will be any further steps by Japanese authorities to prevent the yen from falling against the U.S. dollar, or by European Union leaders to prevent an increase in the cost of living in Europe and the use of fossil fuels.
