Japanese stocks near two week low, economic cues turn pale
18-Nov-24   18:13 Hrs IST
Japanese stocks tanked today as Bank of Japan Governor Kazuo Ueda noted that the door remains open to more rate hikes and the central bank is seeking more clarity on U.S. economic policy under the incoming administration of President-elect Donald Trump. The benchmark Nikkei average dropped 1.09 percent to 38,220.85 while the broader Topix index settled 0.73 percent lower at 2,691.76. Nikkei has slumped near two week low today.

Pharmaceutical stocks tanked most after Trump nominated vaccine skeptic Robert F Kennedy as the U.S. Secretary for Health and Human Service.

Economic cues were bleak. The total value of core machine orders in Japan fell a seasonally adjusted 0.7% on Month in September, the Cabinet Office said on Monday - coming in at 852.0 billion yen.
