Nikkei 225 opens -0.6% following the reports of a potential coalition of opposition parties; KOPSI +0.1%.

The Nikkei 225's drop of 0.6% suggests concerns regarding political stability in Japan, particularly with the emergence of a potential coalition of opposition parties, which could impact government policy direction. Conversely, the KOPSI's modest rise of 0.1% indicates some resilience in South Korea's market, possibly reflecting different regional dynamics or investor sentiment. Traders should monitor how this political development may influence broader market sentiment and cross-border flows in Asia.
