Tokyo’s benchmark Nikkei index opened lower Monday after falls on Wall Street, where Nvidia continued to slip with traders moving to consolidated gains from a recent rally in tech shares.
The Nikkei 225 index was down 0.21 percent, or 81.08 points, at 38,515.39 in early trade, while the broader Topix index added 0.09 percent, or 2.48 points, to 2,727.17.
Asia-Pacific markets fell on Monday, ahead of inflation data from Australia and Japan later this week.
Special attention will be paid to Australia’s May consumer price index figures on Wednesday, after Reserve Bank of Australia Governor Michelle Bullock revealed the central bank discussed hiking rates at its last meeting.
Should inflation come in higher than expected and spur the RBA to raise rates, it would be the first major Asia-Pacific central bank to do so in an environment where investors are waiting for rate cuts, barring Japan.
Australia’s S&P/ASX 200 fell 0.19%. Japan’s Nikkei 225 was down 0.19%, while the Topix was 0.24% higher, the only major benchmark in Asia in positive territory.
South Korea’s Kospi dipped 0.39%, and the small-cap Kosdaq was 0.54% lower.
Hong Kong Hang Seng index futures were at 17,968, lower than the HSI’s last close of 18,028.52.
