Today, in the growth market, the TSE Growth Market Index and the TSE Growth Market 250 Index saw slight declines, with 272 rising stocks, 269 falling stocks, and 49 remaining unchanged.

Today in the growth market, trading activity was mixed. The U.S. market on the previous day, the 21st, was stable. Concerns about geopolitical risks eased, and Chicago Fed President Goolsbee expressed that interest rates will likely be "below current levels" next year, leading to buying based on the anticipation of lower future rates, pushing the market higher. The nasdaq struggled due to rising long-term interest rates, but positive reactions to earnings from semiconductors company nvidia provided support, barely keeping it in positive territory.

While watching the U.S. stock market with major stock indices rising, the TSE Growth Market Index opened higher. However, it quickly reversed and narrowed its gains, falling into negative territory. Around mid-morning, buying spread again, bringing it back into positive territory. Subsequently, trading activity was mixed as it fluctuated around the previous day's closing price, ending the trading session with a slight decline. The rise in U.S. stocks positively affected domestic individual investors, leading to buying in the morning. However, there may have been a shift towards speculative buying of growth stocks the previous day, making today less vibrant. The strong expectation of rising long-term interest rates both domestically and internationally is also a factor making it difficult to actively engage with growth stocks.
