[Nikkei Stock Average and TOPIX (Table)]
Nikkei average; 38615.29; + 133.18 TOPIX; 2730.60; +14.84 In the latter half of the day, the Nikkei average started with a smaller increase in the range from before the break (38707.21 yen) to 38,615.29 yen, up 133.18 yen from the previous day. During lunchtime, the Nikkei 225 futures were weakened in the range of 38570 to 38670 yen. The dollar-yen rate is approximately the same level as 157.80-90 yen at around 9am. In Asia, the Shanghai Composite Index is down about 0.3% with uncertain direction, while the Hang Seng Index in Hong Kong is steadily rising and has risen significantly by about 1.9%.
In the latter half of the Tokyo market, selling started slightly before the previous close. The Nikkei Average is aware of the 25-day moving average line positioned in the middle of the 38,700 yen range as an upper resistance line, and some consider that the upward potential from here is not large in the short term. On the other hand, it seems that the Tokyo market is becoming more reassured by the fact that the US long-term interest rates that fell in the overseas market yesterday have also become calm movements.
