日经225指数下跌0.9%,至38800点以下,而周四更广泛的东证指数下跌0.8%,至2745点,延续了前一交易日的跌幅,因为对美国总统唐纳德·特朗普不断升级的关税威胁的担忧打压了市场情绪。特朗普最近宣布计划对汽车、半导体和药品进口征收25%的关税,这些行业对日本经济至关重要。此外,美联储最近一次会议的纪要显示,政策制定者更希望在进一步降息之前看到通胀问题取得进一步进展。在日本,投资者正在等待周五的通胀数据,以衡量该国的经济前景和对货币政策的潜在影响。指数权重股大幅下跌,包括IHI Corp(-3%)、东京电子(-1.5%)和软银集团(-1.7%)。
The Nikkei 225 Index fell 0.9% to below 38,800, while the broader Topix Index dropped 0.8% to 2,745 on Thursday, extending losses from the previous session as concerns over US President Donald Trump’s escalating tariff threats weighed on market sentiment. Trump recently announced plans to impose 25% tariffs on imports of autos, semiconductors, and pharmaceuticals—sectors that are crucial to Japan's economy. In addition, minutes from the latest US Federal Reserve meeting revealed that policymakers would prefer to see further progress on inflation before making additional interest rate cuts. In Japan, investors are awaiting Friday's inflation data to gauge the country's economic outlook and potential implications for monetary policy. Sharp declines were seen in index heavyweights, including IHI Corp (-3%), Tokyo Electron (-1.5%), and SoftBank Group (-1.7%).
