The Nikkei Average fell for five consecutive days, after a round of buying there was a hesitation among buyers, resulting in a consolidation.

On the 14th, the USA market was mixed. The Dow Inc average closed up $221.16 at $42,518.28, while the Nasdaq fell 43.71 points to 19,044.39 at the end of Trade. The Producer Price Index (PPI) was below expectations, reigniting Buy expectations, and it rose after the opening. However, it struggled afterwards due to caution ahead of Bank earnings and the Consumer Price Index (CPI) announcement. The rise in interest rates and the Biden administration's export restrictions on AI Semiconductors to China weighed down on firms like NVIDIA and other Semiconductors.

The Bank of Japan governor stated that a decision on whether to raise interest rates will be made next week, causing a short-term appreciation of the yen, and the two-year Japanese government bond yield rose to its highest level in 17 years.

Overnight Index swaps indicate that the market bets on a 73% probability of the Bank of Japan raising interest rates this month, and an 86% probability of a rate hike by the end of March. Analysts believe that compared to earlier views this month, the governor today provided clearer guidance on what might be discussed at the meeting.
