Japanese Stocks React to Israel’s Military Strike on Iran

Today, Japanese stocks experienced a significant drop in response to the news of Israel’s military strike on Iran. The benchmark Nikkei 225 index fell by 1.25% within the first hour of trading in Tokyo. This sudden decline sent shockwaves through the Japanese financial markets.

Similarly, South Korea’s Kospi index also saw a decline of over 1% during the early part of its morning session. The impact of geopolitical events on global stock markets was evident as investors reacted to the escalating tensions in the Middle East.

As a result of the news, US equity index futures took a hit, and US bonds gained traction. The yield on the benchmark 10-year Treasury dropped by four basis points to 4.32%, reflecting a flight to safety among investors seeking refuge in less risky assets.

In Tokyo, sectors such as basic materials and textiles, which are sensitive to fluctuations in oil prices, experienced heavy selling pressure. On the other hand, stocks of Japan’s largest energy companies, including Inpex, Eneos, and Idemitsu, surged in response to the possibility of rising oil prices due to the geopolitical tensions.

The Japanese yen, which had been strengthening against the US dollar prior to the news, initially depreciated by 0.35% to ¥143 ($1) before recovering. Traders anticipated heightened volatility in the currency markets and adjusted their positions accordingly to mitigate potential risks.

It is worth noting that the news of the military strikes broke before the start of Hong Kong trading, setting the stage for a day of uncertainty and heightened market volatility across the Asia-Pacific region.
