TOKYO, April 30, 2021 (BSS/AFP) – Tokyo’s key Nikkei 225 index opened lower on Friday in subdued trade during Japan’s Golden Week holiday period.
The benchmark Nikkei 225 index was down 0.35 percent or 100.89 points at 28,953.08 in early trade, while the broader Topix Index gained 0.06 percent or 1.06 points to 1,910.12.
Investors were closing their positions after a national holiday on Thursday and ahead of an extended weekend that will see the market closed from Monday until Wednesday. Normal trading will resume from Thursday.
“In early trade, selling related to position adjustments ahead of the holiday period are dominating the market, rather than the market reflecting strong US shares,” Okasan Online Securities said.
