La Borsa di Tokyo avvia le contrattazioni in calo, dopo la correzione degli indici azionari statunitensi in linea con l'inasprirsi delle ostilità tra Iran e Medio Oriente e l'avanzata dell'occupazione del Libano da parte dell'esercito israeliano, mentre tornano a salire le quotazioni del greggio Brent, sopra i 93 dollari al barile.

In apertura il listino di riferimento Nikkei mette a segno una variazione negativa dell'1,10% a quota 63.474,30, con una flessione di 704 punti. Sul mercato dei cambi prosegue l'indebolimento dello yen, sul dollaro a 160,50 e a 185,20 sull'euro.

Open Questions

  • What is the immediate outlook for oil prices?
  • Will the conflict in the Middle East spread further?
  • How will global markets react in the coming days?
