Markets reel as Tokyo leads global stock drop
Analysts see little relief for weak markets amid soaring inflation and high rates. Tokyo’s Nikkei fell 653.36 points to 37516.77, the largest one day decline since 1987, with elections next month and weak yen weighing on sentiment. U.S. data showing 4.8 percent wholesale price inflation added to losses, while Dow dropped 71.46 points. Investors fret higher rates abroad and a fragile U.S. economy, with bonds seen as refuge on holiday-thinned trading.
