The second place was taken by Tokyo Electron<8035>, followed by Advantest<6857>, First Retailing<9983>, Laser Tec<6920>, Fanuc<6954>, Shin-Etsu Chemical<4063>, and so on.

The Nikkei average rebounded, closing the morning session at 39,727.91 yen, up 386.37 yen (+0.98%) from the previous day (with an estimated trading volume of 800 million shares). In terms of product structure, the operating income of products worth 10-30 billion yen was 401/1288/60 million yen, respectively.
The U.S. stock market continued to rise slightly on the 27th. The Dow Jones Industrial Average ended trading at 39,164.06, up 36.26 dollars (+0.09%) from the previous day. The Nasdaq Composite Index rose 53.53 points (+0.30%) to 17,858.68, and the S&P 500 rose 4.97 points (+0.09%) to 5,482.87. The market opened lower due to lackluster corporate earnings, such as from Micron and Walgreens Boots Alliance, which cooled investor sentiment. While the Federal Reserve Board (FRB) is keeping an eye on the release of the May PCE price index, investors are cautious, and skepticism about the sustainability of the AI boom emerged due to Micron's inadequate outlook, leading to selling of semiconductor stocks such as Nvidia. On the other hand, buying continued for major technology stocks, such as Amazon.com and Apple, whose market capitalization reached 2 trillion dollars the previous day, supporting the market.
The Tokyo market opened with a buying bias, focusing on technology stocks, following the rise in U.S. stocks. The Nikkei average started at around 39,500 yen and gradually rose, and at one point, it widened its gain to almost the same level as the previous day's rebound high of 39,783.70 yen.
