Tokyo's main index dragged lower as lira fears linger in the market
- Session high 22,380.28
- Session low 22,110.29
Japanese stocks end the day off the lows but still markedly lower as risk sentiment in the market remains plagued by the Turkish lira situation. The bright spot here is that we're not seeing the declines in China and Hong Kong exaggerate further losses elsewhere.
The Hang Seng index remains dragged down by tech shares - Tencent especially - and is down 1.7% currently. China's Shanghai Composite index is down 1.7% as well heading into the final hour of trading.
