The US stock market continues to grow. The Dow average closed at 38386.09 dollars which was 146.43 dollars higher (+ 0.38%), the NASDAQ was 55.19 points higher (+ 0.35%) at 15983.09, and the S&P 500 closed at 5116.17 which was 16.21 points higher (+ 0.32%). After Microsoft received Alphabet's financial results and was bought by an optimistic view of AI (artificial intelligence), it rose. Expectations for corporate financial results scheduled for this week also became further buying material, and the recovery of Apple and Tesla also led high technology and remained steady throughout the day. Towards the end of the game, in addition to sluggish growth in profit-making sales ahead of the US Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC), the fact that estimated borrowing amounts for the April-6 fiscal year announced by the Ministry of Finance were unexpectedly revised upward became alarming material and turned into a temporary decline. However, the market price recovered to the positive zone and ended due to strong motivation to buy.

In response to rising US stocks, the Tokyo market began trading with a buying advantage after the consecutive holidays. The fact that multiple stocks adopted by the Nikkei Average that announced financial results were drastically higher also had an impact, and after the Nikkei Average came close to the 38300 yen range, the increase gradually expanded. There was also a scene where the increase in the aftermarket was reduced, but the transaction was closed above the 75-day moving average level of 38230 yen.
