The Nikkei average is the most watched index of Asian stocks. It has been calculated daily by the Nihon Keizai Shimbun (Nikkei) newspaper since 1971. It is a price-weighted average (the unit is Yen), and the components are reviewed once a year. The Nikkei 225 began to be calculated on September 7, 1950, retroactively calculated back to May 16, 1949. The Nikkei 225 Futures, introduced at the Osaka Securities Exchange (OSE), Chicago Mercantile Exchange (CME) ,Singapore Exchange (SGX) , is now an internationally recognized futures index. Stocks are weighted on the Nikkei 225 by giving an equal weighting based on a par value of 50 yen per share. Events such as stock splits, removals and additions of constituents impact upon the effective weighting of individual stocks and the divisor. The Nikkei 225 is designed to reflect the overall market, so there is no specific weighting of industries. Stocks are reviewed annually and announcements of review results are made in September. Changes, if required, are made at the beginning of October. Changes may also take place at any time if a stock is found to be ineligible for the Stock Average. All proposed changes will be announced in Nikkei's Japanese newspapers and will appear on NNI.</description><generator>Fwicki.Com - Fwicki Feed Generator</generator><language>en-us</language><image><url>http://www.fwicki.com/images/ui/feed-link.png</url><title>Fwicki - RSS Management</title><link>http://www.fwicki.com/fwickis/Investing/Nikkei-Index</link><description>Fwicki - RSS Management</description><width>88</width><height>90</height></image><item><title>Tokyo Shares Fall On Profit-Taking; Fujitsu Extends Losses - Wall Street Journal</title><link>http://news.google.com/news/url?fd=R&amp;sa=T&amp;url=http%3A%2F%2Fonline.wsj.com%2Farticle%2FBT-CO-20100309-700880.html%3Fmod%3Drss_Global_Stocks&amp;usg=AFQjCNEST3Vz1XrHz4fzWpBHmL4g91nCDw</link><guid>http://news.google.com/news/url?fd=R&amp;sa=T&amp;url=http%3A%2F%2Fonline.wsj.com%2Farticle%2FBT-CO-20100309-700880.html%3Fmod%3Drss_Global_Stocks&amp;usg=AFQjCNEST3Vz1XrHz4fzWpBHmL4g91nCDw287</guid><description>&lt;table border="0" cellpadding="2" cellspacing="7" style="vertical-align:top;"&gt;&lt;tr&gt;&lt;td width="80" align="center" valign="top"&gt;&lt;font style="font-size:85%;font-family:arial,sans-serif"&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/td&gt;&lt;td valign="top" class="j"&gt;&lt;font style="font-size:85%;font-family:arial,sans-serif"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="padding-top:0.8em;"&gt;&lt;img alt="" height="1" width="1" /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="lh"&gt;&lt;a href="http://news.google.com/news/url?fd=R&amp;amp;sa=T&amp;amp;url=http%3A%2F%2Fonline.wsj.com%2Farticle%2FBT-CO-20100309-700880.html%3Fmod%3Drss_Global_Stocks&amp;amp;usg=AFQjCNEST3Vz1XrHz4fzWpBHmL4g91nCDw"&gt;&lt;b&gt;Tokyo Shares Fall On Profit-Taking; Fujitsu Extends Losses&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;font size="-1"&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;font color="#6f6f6f"&gt;Wall Street Journal&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;font size="-1"&gt;The &lt;b&gt;Nikkei 225&lt;/b&gt; Stock Average fell 18.27 points, or 0.2%, to 10567.65; the index had surged 4.3% over the prior two sessions.
