The Tokyo Nikkei index ended a two-month low, falling more than 2 percent briefly after the U.S. reported higher-than-expected inflation. This makes investors worried that the US Federal Reserve (Fed) may speed up interest rates further.
Kyodo News Agency reported that The Nikkei Index closed at 25,748.72, down 464.92, or -1.77%, its lowest close since March 15.
Shares lower today were led by data and communications, services, and agriculture and fisheries.
