Why it's moving

Rallied on the weaker yen and the global tech bid — Japan's exporters are a leveraged bet on a cheap yen plus a happy Nasdaq.

    Yen weakness + overnight US tech strength.

  2. Wed−1.2%

    BOJ-hike speculation firmed the yen, hurt exporters.

  3. 1 mo ago+2.4%

    Foreign inflows on a corporate-governance push.

Is this move normal?

A +1.7% day is a strong session.

The Nikkei swings more than most developed benchmarks; ±1.5% is a lively but normal day.

↺ The memory — when this happens

When the yen weakens sharply, do Japanese exporters really win?

Most of the time, yes — the Nikkei and exporters like Toyota rose in the sessions after past sharp yen slides. The catch is the tail: near intervention levels, one Tokyo headline can snap the yen back and reverse the whole trade in minutes.
