Last week, the Nikkei Average responded sensitively to escalating tensions in the Middle East and movements in interest rates, while the performance of major indices and changes in contribution rankings were organized and reviewed. The video uses the Nikkei Average's 5-minute chart, contribution rankings and daily MACD, among other tools, to identify turning points in the market.
