JP 225 forecast: the index enters a sideways trend
The JP 225 stock index entered a sideways trend, although the uptrend remains intact. The JP 225 forecast for today is positive.
JP 225 forecast: key takeaways
Recent data: Japan’s Tokyo core CPI rose by 1.60%
Market impact: the impact on the Japanese stock market is mixed
Fundamental analysis
Tokyo core CPI data may have a moderately dampening effect on the JP 225. The actual reading was 1.6% year-on-year, fully matching the forecast, so the publication itself should not trigger a strong negative reaction. However, the increase from the previous 1.3% to 1.6% indicates accelerating inflationary pressures.
For the JP 225 index, this is a neutral-to-negative signal. On the one hand, inflation remains below the 2% level, so the data does not strengthen the case for sharp policy tightening.

US 30 index forecast: the index continues to reach new all-time highs
The US 30 index has confidently surpassed its all-time high, with a correction highly likely. The US 30 forecast for today is positive.
US 30 forecast: key takeaways
Recent data: US Nonfarm Payrolls came in at 57 thousand in June 2026
Market impact: the data has a positive impact on the stock market

US Nonfarm Payrolls data appears weak for the market, with actual job growth at 57 thousand, below the forecast of 114 thousand and the previous reading of 129 thousand. This indicates a notable cooling in the labour market and may fuel concerns that the US economy is losing growth momentum.
