Just curious you all. If the core is exposed, people are evacuating Tokyo, then why is the Japanese equity market way up today, up 375 pts and nearly 5%?
Today, in the USA, the japanese stocks and etf’s almost closed higher, certainly not down 10%, and outperformed the us market?
Something is really amiss here, and if history is correct, this is just like the Gulf last year. Just a whole lot of duping going on.
This news must have come in after Nikkei closed for the day.
