As of the closing time 7 days ago, the number of rising stocks for Nikkei average constituent stocks was 189, falling stocks were 35, and unchanged stocks were 1.

Nikkei Average continued to rise sharply. It closed the morning trading at 35464.61 yen (+2.28%, 789.15 yen higher than the previous day) (estimated trading volume of 1.5 billion 90 million shares). In terms of product structure, the operating income of 10-30 billion yuan products was 401/1288/60 million yuan respectively.

The US stock market rebounded on the 6th. The Dow Jones Industrial Average closed at 38,997.66 (+294.39, +0.76%), the Nasdaq at 16,366.86 (+166.78, +1.03%), and the S&P500 at 5,240.03 (+53.70, +1.04%). Many shares were bought because the previous day's drop was considered to be an overreaction. Concerns over serious economic downturns eased, and the investor mood improved. In addition, the good earnings of some major companies such as Caterpillar prompted traders to buy back shares during the day. High-tech stocks also rose sharply and the market ended in the plus zone despite losing momentum at the end.

While US stocks are regaining stability, the volatile Tokyo market opened with sellers taking the lead. After the start of trading, the Nikkei average fell to 33,739.46 yen, but bank stocks were bought back in the physical market, and the TOPIX stopped declining and started rising. When Masayuki Ueda, Deputy Governor of the Bank of Japan, spoke at a financial and economic discussion hosted in Hakodate, he said, "There will be no interest rate hike in an unstable financial capital market," and "It is necessary to properly continue financial easing at the current level in the short-term." When this was announced, the yen weakened and the exchange rate saw a temporary drop of about 3 yen per dollar. At the timing of the yen's weakening, the Nikkei average quickly recovered and rose by more than 1,000 yen at one point.

In the Nikkei average selection stocks, Disco <6146> rose significantly, and some semiconductor stocks such as SoCionext <6526> rose. In addition, NICHIREI <2871> was bought due to its earnings, and bank stocks such as Sumitomo Mitsui <8316>, Resona Holdings <8308>, Mitsubishi UFJ <8306>, Mizuho <8411>, and Fukuoka <8354> all rose. Canon <7751>, Nippon Steel <5631>, IHI <7013>, and Kawasaki Heavy Industries <7012> were also bought. Conversely, Daikin <6367> and Ricoh <7752> fell significantly due to lower-than-expected first-quarter operating profit, and Mitsui Chemicals <4183> was sold due to concerns about plant troubles despite good first-quarter performance. In addition, Furukawa Electric <5801>, AGC <5201>, Ajinomoto <2802>, and Kajima Construction <1812> fell.

While all industries are in an upward trend, the banking industry, the wholesale trade industry, the insurance industry, the securities and commodity futures trading industry, and machinery industries stood out.

The exchange rate is hovering around 146 yen per dollar. The yen's appreciation stopped after the remarks made by Deputy Governor Ueda. The USD/JPY has been volatile, fluctuating more than 2 yen a day since July 30th. The press conference by Deputy Governor Ueda is scheduled to be held today at 2:30pm, and there is sufficient potential for further yen depreciation or reversal to yen appreciation. Various speculations are stirring up the market, so caution should be exercised for the Tokyo market in the afternoon.

The top contributors to the increase were Softbank Group (9984), which pushed the Nikkei average up by about 87 yen with one stock. The second place was Tohoku electric power (8035), followed by KDDI (9433), Disco (6146), TDK (6762), Recruit Holdings (6098), Daiichi Sankyo (4568), and so on.

On the other hand, the top contributor to the decrease was Daikin Industries, Ltd. (6367), which lowered the Nikkei average by about 62 yen with one stock. The second place was NTT Data Corporation (9613), followed by Fast Retailing (9983), Ajinomoto (2802), Ricoh (7752), Yamaha Motor (7272), Dentsu Group (4324), and so on.
