N225 Live priceWhat is Nikkei 225
The Nikkei 225 tracks 225 leading companies listed in Tokyo. It is the best-known measure of the Japanese stock market.
Like the Dow, it is price-weighted, so higher-priced shares carry more influence. Many of its members are global exporters, which ties it closely to the yen.
A weaker yen often lifts the Nikkei by making Japanese exports more competitive, a relationship traders watch closely.
