we're going to go to ramina. what can you tell us. >> the initial reaction in new york was a little bit of a selloff as we saw there. mixed closing. but then a more measured reaction took place kind of leveling things off a little bit. let's have a look at how the nikkei. what may hold the investor's attention, pretty gains to the yen, 112, in fact, the dollar gain gained, despite the gop political risks. they tend to pile in, such as the yen, not so much, which may lend to buying incentive for investors here, especially for exporte exporters. we'll keep track of that. the nekkei is down, that may provide further incentive for investors to snap up some of the sold shares. that may come from energy and commodity, which since mid february, steadily risen on the back of higher oil and commodity prices as well. crude was up again on tuesday, and more than 50% since hitting its low back in january. that's some media reports saying they may sign a deal capping the output next month. that's without iran taking part. ira
