(ANSA) - TOKYO, OCTOBER 24 - The Tokyo Stock Exchange starts the first session of the week on the rise, following the consolidation of the US stock indices.
At the opening the Nikkei reference price list marks a rise of 1.12% to 27,213.55 points, and a gain of 322 points.
On the foreign exchange market, the dollar retreated from its highs in 32 years, to 148.30 after what appears to be a market intervention decided by the Tokyo government, and which materialized last Friday, according to analysts, that the Japanese finance minister - however - did not want to confirm.
The euro also retraces the Japanese currency, just above 146. (ANSA).
