Japan's stock market crashed over 6% on March 9, 2026, amid rising oil prices and Middle East tensions.
Japan's Nikkei 225 plunged over 6% on Monday, March 9, 2026, briefly dropping below 52,000, as escalating Middle East tensions triggered a spike in crude oil prices, with West Texas Intermediate futures rising above $119 per barrel—the highest since June 2022.
The sell-off, driven by global risk aversion and fears of supply disruptions, caused the Nikkei to close down 3,880 points, or 6.98%, at 51,740.46, while the Topix index fell 5.6%.
