São Paulo, 10/01/2024 – Stock exchanges in Asia and the Pacific ended trading this Tuesday without a single direction, with Tokyo’s stock partially recovering, amid holidays that kept markets in China, Hong Kong and of South Korea closed.
The Nikkei index rose 1.93% in Tokyo, to 38,651.97 points, reversing part of the fall of almost 5% in the previous session, when it reacted negatively to the choice of Shigeru Ishiba as Japan’s new prime minister. There are fears that Ishiba may adopt unfavorable policies for actions, such as tax increases.
In Taiwan, Taiex also showed a positive performance today, with an increase of 0.75%, to 22,390.39 points.
In Oceania, on the other hand, the Australian stock market was in the red, after renewing historic highs for two consecutive sessions. The S&P/ASX 200 fell 0.74% in Sydney, to 8,208.90 points, pressured by bank and mining shares.
