Nikkei

Nikkei is a Japanese media organization, most notably known for owning the Financial Times (FT), which it acquired in 2015 from Pearson. The provided articles mention Nikkei in the context of the FT's ownership. Nikkei itself isn't directly involved in the main events described in the articles, which center around geopolitical tensions between the US and Iran, fluctuating oil prices, and the resulting impact on global stock markets. The articles highlight the sensitivity of financial markets to political events and announcements, particularly those related to oil supply and conflict resolution. Nikkei's relevance stems from its ownership of a major financial news outlet (FT), which would be reporting on and analyzing these significant global events and their economic consequences.
