As of the closing on the 19th, the number of rising stocks in the Nikkei average constituent stocks was 118, and the number of declining stocks was 105, with 2 stocks unchanged.

The Nikkei average fell slightly for the 6th consecutive trading day. At the end of the morning session, it was 38,047.17 yen (with an approximate trading volume of 0.7 billion 70 million shares), down 15.50 yen (-0.04%) from the previous trading day. On the 16th, the U.S. stock market continued to rise. The Dow Jones average rose 96.70 dollars (+0.24%) to 40,659.76 dollars, the Nasdaq rose 37.22 points (+0.21%) to 17,631.72, and the S&P 500 rose 11.03 points (+0.20%) to 5,554.25. Goolsbee, president of the Federal Reserve Bank of Chicago, expressed concern about the economy and labor market, and due to caution about the number of housing starts falling below expectations, the stock market fell after the market opened. However, the Michigan Consumer Confidence Index, which was released later, exceeded expectations, easing concerns about the economy, and strengthened buybacks, causing the market to rise. As the long-term interest rates fell and the persistent expectations of a rate cut continued to be bought, the market continued to rise. However, because the five-day consecutive rise of U.S. stocks and the end of the yen depreciation have been recognized, the Tokyo market has opened with a selling pressure. After the selling pressure subsided, the Nikkei Average gradually reduced its decline, and after recovering the 38,000 yen level, there were scenes where it rebounded temporarily, etc. The morning session ended at the weekend closing level. The trading value in the Prime Market in the morning session was about 1.8 trillion yen, and the transaction volume decreased, and it became quiet like at the beginning of the week.
