[Backside Overview]
The Nikkei Average in the backstage started at 38348.38 yen, which was 74.33 yen higher than the previous day, expanding the increase from the previous draw (38299.71 yen). Nikkei 225 futures during lunchtime are strong in the 38280 yen to 38370 yen range, and they are a good match. The dollar and yen depreciated by about 30 yen from around 9:00 a.m., and the dollar was at a high level of 1 dollar = 156.00-10 yen. As for Asian market conditions, the Shanghai market was closed. The Hong Kong Hang Seng Index began with a slight decline, then turned upward and remained steady, rising drastically by about 2.4%.
The backstage Tokyo Market began with buying ahead of time compared to closing ahead of the front. The yen exchange rate, which grew rapidly during the early morning hours, then swung slightly in the direction of yen depreciation and dollar appreciation, and the fact that the Dow Jones Industrial Average futures were moving steadily due to overtime trading, and the fact that the Hong Kong Hang Seng Index rose drastically seemed to be a sense of security in the Tokyo market. Meanwhile, the Tokyo market will have 4 consecutive holidays starting tomorrow, and US employment statistics for tomorrow and April may be announced in the US, so there is also a tendency to be wary of market price fluctuations in overseas markets during the consecutive holidays and forego aggressive purchases.
In the sector, the wholesale industry, electricity/gas industry, and real estate industry are at the top of the rate of increase, while the shipping industry, air transport industry, and banking industry are at the top of the rate of decline.
