Japanese markets plummet, Nikkei down 2.88%
The Nikkei average tumbled 2.88 percent to 37,155.50, marking a five-month low amid much uncertainty over how earnings of companies operating overseas would be affected by the U.S. tariff policies.
The broader Topix index settled 1.98 percent lower at 2,682.09, pressured by selling of semiconductor-linked shares such as Advantest, Tokyo Electron and SoftBank Group.
