could we see stocks pairibarin baring -- pearing back a touch here? >> good morning. seeing the highs on the nikkei as well, i'm not surprised we're seeing paring back and the yen has strengthened against the dollar and euro and could see exporters and financials trade lower. let's have a look at the opening levels and we can see exactly where we stand. that's what i'm talking about, a little bit of mixed picture. nikkei just a touch lower from the close we saw yesterday but topix just barely in the positive and we'll see how that progresses during the day. the rise of the nikkei recently has been due to the weakening yen and monitoring measures set by the prime minister abe. not a surprise the focus is on the next governor nominee of japan. a lot of focus on that individual and the governor of the bank of japan and other nominees really set to be approved by both chambers of parliament, also expected the names will be confirmed by the end of this week and the individuals will be installed by the middle of next week. a lot of focus there op the bank of japan. >> yes.
