Stock market: Tokyo, opening little moved (-0.09%)

The Tokyo Stock Exchange starts trading little changed, with new profit-taking by investors after the recent run of the index above 70,000, in view of the next monetary policy indications, with the minutes of the FOMC meeting, which could clarify the extent of future rate increases by the Fed.

At the opening, the Nikkei reference list recorded a slightly negative change of 0.09% at 70,622.18, with a loss of 61 points. On the foreign exchange market, the yen is stable against the dollar, at 158.40, given the still wide yield differential with the United States, and against the euro, at 178.20.
