The Dow average closed at 37753.31 dollars, down 45.66 dollars, and the NASDAQ closed at 15683.37, which fell 181.88 points. It was bought as interest rates declined, and then rose after being snuggled up. After that, it was pushed by high-tech sales, starting with the semiconductor manufacturer NVDA (NVDA), and the market price began to decline. The decline of the NASDAQ widened towards the end of the game. The market became heavy, and the Dow was unable to maintain the positive zone and ended with a decline.
Sales took precedence in the Tokyo stock market today. The fall in major indices in the US stock market yesterday weighed on stock prices in the Tokyo market. Above all, the Nasdaq Composite Index fell 1.15%, and the Philadelphia Semiconductor Stock Index (SOX Index), which consists of major semiconductor-related stocks, fell 3.25%, and the rate of decline was large compared to the Dow average (0.12% decline), which was a factor holding back buyers of high-tech stocks and semiconductor-related stocks in the Tokyo market. Meanwhile, since the Nikkei Average continued to fall by more than 1500 yen for 3 days until yesterday, it was easy to wait for a push or buy with the aim of an autonomous backlash. Also, in the Nikkei Average, the 75-day moving average located in the 37700 yen range was recognized as a lower price support line, and there was also a view that there was not much room for lower prices from here on, but sales dominated during the donation stage.
