Galvanized by the unwinding in global carry trades, USD/ JPY continued to rise to a high of more than 2.5 months since early May. Today (25th), it busted above the 153 mark during the Asian session and last added 1%. USD/JPY fell to 152.26. JPY100/ HKD last printed at 5.122.

Nikkei 225 Stock Average collapsed 1,195 pts or nearly 3.1%, bottoming at 37,959 before taking brief breath. It rested at 38,165, down 989 pts or 2.5%.

The Japanese market was dented by heavyweights, with Tokyo Electric Power, Mitsubishi UFJ and Fast Retailing losing about 1%-2%; Rakuten, Sony and TDK each sliding by more than 4%-5%.

The semiconductor-related sector was in selloff along with the external market, with Disco Corp and Advantest cratering 6.8%-7.2%; Renesas Electronics nosediving 16.7%, posting the largest decline in 12 years.

Overnight, there was market news that the Bank of Japan (BOJ) may discuss whether to raise interest rates at next week's meeting and announce a plan to halve the scale of bond purchases in the next few years. The news said that the interest rate decision will depend on how long the committee members are willing to wait to confirm whether consumption will recover and stabilize inflation near the BOJ's 2% target.
