Japan's Nikkei share average closed above the psychologically important 27,000 level for the first time in two weeks on Tuesday, as energy shares surged, although uncertainty over the pace of U.S. interest rate hikes limited gains. The Nikkei climbed 0.66% to close at 27,049.47, near the high for the day. The Nikkei's best performing sector was energy, up 3.8%, after crude prices rebounded.
Japan's Nikkei share average edged lower on Tuesday, slipping from the 27,000 level it touched for the first time in two weeks, dragged by chip stocks and as weakness in China weighed on sentiment. The Nikkei slipped 0.15% to 26,830.69, putting it on course for its first session of losses in four. "Other than being an important psychological level, 27,000 is also right about where the 25-day moving average currently sits, so it's a level that's attracting profit-taking," said a trader at a domestic securities firm.
Japan's Nikkei share average rebounded from a more than one-month low on Thursday, tracking overnight Wall Street strength, after the Federal Reserve in an expected move hiked interest rate by 75 basis points, as it tries to rein in U.S. inflation. The Nikkei rose 1.4% to 26,694.05 by the midday break and was set to snap a four-day losing run that took it to its lowest close since May 12 on Wednesday, but it was well off the day's highs as an approach toward the psychological 27,000 mark was met with profit taking. Fed Chair Jerome Powell said that a 75 bp increase "seemed like the right thing to do at this meeting," but added that hikes of that size, the biggest since 1994, were not likely to be "common".
