Following the rise of US stocks, the Tokyo market opened with a buying trend. Although the Nikkei average rose to near 40,000 yen, it faltered due to mixed highs and lows of high-tech stocks such as precision instruments. Financial stocks, such as banks with large market capitalization, were bought, causing the TOPIX to have a relative advantage, and the Nikkei average slightly fell as active trading was held back awaiting financial reports.
