Trading halted..!? Japan's stock market is in shock.!!
Today, futures trading of Japan's Nikkei 225 and Topix indices was temporarily halted. This is a result of the sharp fall in global markets due to the new tariffs announced by US President Donald Trump. The main reason for this is the activation of a safety mechanism called a 'circuit breaker'. A circuit breaker is a safety mechanism that is activated when the stock market experiences severe fluctuations. If any stock or index values experience a very rapid decline or rise, trading is temporarily halted. This is provided as a 'cooling off period' for stock investors and companies. This means that the chaos in the stock market is reduced and investors are allowed to make smart decisions.
Jim Cramer said: Market expert Jim Cramer, speaking on CNBC television, warned that there is a possibility of a repeat of the market crash that occurred in 1987 like 'Black Monday'. "If the US president does not take the right measures, the market could fall for three days, like what happened in 1987, and then fall 22% in a single day." He said. Advice to stock investors: When such a market situation arises, investors should not panic, but should regularly review their investments and take necessary precautions. A circuit breaker is a safety measure that prevents the market from going into a full-blown crisis. The global stock market is under severe pressure. Major markets like Japan, the US, China, and hong kong have fallen. The activation of the circuit breaker is a safety measure. There is a risk of a stock market crash like 'Black Monday'. Investors should not panic and act thoughtfully.
