Why is the Nikkei down today?

The Nikkei is down 1.8% today, at 61,077.90.

Nothing in today’s news bears on it directly.

Which way it leans, and how far it could go

Slight lean down

Trend: below its 50-day average and down 10.6% in a month.

A typical day: ±1.6% (±990.55)

We keep score: every day each lean is checked a day later, and how often they were right will show here once 20 have been checked.

Where it should end the period two times in three (likely) and nineteen times in twenty (wider), if the coming days swing as much as the recent ones: a volatility forecast from its past year, weighted to the last weeks. Our lean puts together how today’s news bears on it and its trend; it can be wrong, and markets can move more. Not investment advice.
