The number of gains and falls of the Nikkei Average constituent stocks at the time of the big closing on the 17th was 120 stocks with price increases, 104 stocks with price drops, and 1 stock unchanged.
The US stock market fell on the 16th. The Dow average closed at 39869.38 dollars (-0.10%), the NASDAQ depreciated 44.07 points (-0.26%) at 16698.32, and the S&P 500 fell 11.05 points (-0.21%) at 5297.10. Purchases in response to expectations of early interest rate cuts continued, and after getting close, they rose. The Dow achieved the 40,000 dollar range for the first time, but after that, it was sold at profit due to a sense of accomplishment at a high price, and growth was sluggish. Despite the April Consumer Price Index (CPI) results, US Federal Reserve (Fed) senior officials still reiterated their cautious stance in support of maintaining high interest rates for the time being, so high-tech turned to sales in response to an increase in long-term interest rates. Towards the end of the game, the Dow was unable to maintain the positive zone, and the market price fell and ended.
In response to the fall in US stocks, the Tokyo market began trading with a selling advantage. After the Nikkei Average started with a drop of over 300 yen, the decline gradually narrowed. Financial results announcements went round, and while there was a lack of prominent trading materials, it seems that aggressive trading was refrained after the reaction against the previous day's rise went round and round. TOPIX closed in the positive zone compared to the previous day, and the market price contrasted with yesterday.
The closing Nikkei average was 38787.38 yen, down 132.88 yen (-0.34%) from the previous day. The trading volume on the Tokyo Stock Exchange Prime Market is 1,842.55 million shares, and the trading price is 4.23.6 billion yen. By industry, while precision instruments, other products, chemicals, service industries, pulp/paper, etc. declined, banking, electric/gas, transportation equipment, shipping, steel, etc. rose. Stocks that have risen in price on the Tokyo Stock Exchange Prime Market are 60%, while stocks that have dropped in price are 35%.
