The Japanese Nikkei index fell by more than 2% on Thursday, retreating from earlier gains. This decline occurred amid growing concerns about global economic growth and the strengthening of the yen. Investors are showing caution, assessing the impact of the US Federal Reserve's monetary policy. Some analysts link the fall to profit-taking after the recent market rally. Volatility is expected to persist in the coming days until future macroeconomic indicators become clearer.
