The Japan stock market has closed lower after a three-day winning streak, with the Nikkei 225 falling 1.22 percent to finish at 37,965.10 points. The decline was driven by losses in technology and automobile stocks, while financials were mixed. Global markets are soft due to tariff concerns and OPEC+ announcing a production hike. Wall Street ended mixed on Friday following President Trump’s accusations against China. U.S. consumer prices in April edged higher, and crude oil prices dropped over uncertainty about tariffs. Japan will release Q1 capital spending figures on Monday morning.
