Tokyo's main index closes higher on the day
- Session high 22,390.20
- Session low 22,162.81
A solid trading day for Japanese stocks and for most Asian stocks following overnight trading on Wall St where the S&P 500 touched record highs. The only drag in Asia comes from Chinese stocks which continue to be weighed down by the soggy trade rhetoric between US and China.
S&P 500 futures are trading lower today though with the Cohen-Manafort-Trump case making for some uneasiness in markets. That seems to be weighing on European equities too in pre-market trades.
