From Nasdaq.: 2025-03-30 19:33:00

The Japanese stock market has dropped over 900 points in two sessions, with the Nikkei 225 hovering just above 37,120 points. Global markets are weak, and Asian bourses are expected to open similarly. The Nikkei fell 1.80 percent on Friday, led by losses in financial, tech, and auto stocks. The Dow, NASDAQ, and S&P 500 all plummeted on Wall Street. Concerns about the economy grew following data on inflation and consumer sentiment. Oil prices fell, but WTI crude futures gained for the week. Japan will release data on industrial production, retail sales, construction orders, and housing starts on Monday.
