Japan Stock Market May Open Under Pressure On Wednesday

(RTTNews) - The Japan stock market has moved lower in two straight sessions, tumbling almost 900 points or 1.3 percent in that span. The Nikkei 225 now sits just above the 65,480-point plateau and it may take further damage on Wednesday. The global forecast for the Asian markets is flat to lower ahead of key U.S. inflation data. The European and U.S. markets were down and the Asian bourses are expected to follow that lead. The Nikkei finished modestly lower on Tuesday following losses from the paper, transportation, telecom and energy sectors. For the day, the index sank 396.35 points or 0.60 percent to finish at 65,481.27 after trading between 64,699.49 and 65,805.08.
