Japanese stocks fell Thursday as markets remained focused on whether authorities will intervene to support the yen. The Nikkei 225 slipped 1.5% but has climbed 20% so far in 2024 aided by the weaker yen, which increases the value of Japanese companies’ overseas profits.
The yen languished near its weakest in decades on Thursday though the threat of intervention from Japanese authorities prevented traders from pushing the currency to a new low, while Asian stocks rose ahead of a key U.S. inflation report. Markets were largely rangebound ahead of Friday's much-anticipated U.S. core personal consumption expenditures (PCE) price index data, the Federal Reserve's preferred measure of inflation. Japan's three main monetary authorities held an emergency meeting on Wednesday to discuss the weak yen, and suggested they were ready to intervene in the market to stop what they described as disorderly and speculative moves in the currency.
NEW YORK/LONDON (Reuters) -A gauge of global share markets was barely changed on Thursday as it was poised to end the quarter with solid gains, while a strong dollar kept the yen near its weakest in decades amid the threat of intervention from Japanese authorities. Wall Street's main stock indexes finished the session with minimal changes as markets broadly were largely rangebound ahead of Friday's much-anticipated U.S. personal consumption expenditures (PCE) price index data, a closely watched inflation measure. “People are probably a little cautious about positioning ahead of PCE,” said Sameer Samana, senior global market strategist at the Wells Fargo Investment Institute.
