US EditionAsian shares mostly lower, trading in a narrow range with US markets closed for Memorial Day
- Asian shares declined modestly on May 27, 2025, with Tokyo's Nikkei 225 falling 0.2% to close at 37,451.60 amid mixed regional trading.
- The decline followed Bank of Japan Governor Kazuo Ueda's indication that inflation, driven by rising food prices like doubled rice costs, could prompt interest rate hikes soon.
- Meanwhile, European shares rose Monday, with Germany's DAX gaining 1.5% to 23,977.83 and Paris's CAC 40 up 1%, while U.S. Futures advanced despite recent weekly losses in major indexes.
- U.S. President Donald Trump announced a delay until July 9 of a threatened 50% tariff on EU imports, though he warned tariffs could start June 1, prompting muted market reactions described by Stephen Innes as investors 'growing inured to such policy changes.'
- These developments suggest cautious investor sentiment amid inflation concerns in Japan and ongoing U.S.-EU trade negotiations, with markets adjusting to potential policy shifts ahead of the July 9 tariff deadline.
