[Snuggle Overview]
The Nikkei Average on the 14th rebounded to 38287.99 yen, which rose 108.53 yen, and trading began. The US stock market on the 13th the day before was mixed. The Dow average fell by 81.33 dollars to 39431.51 dollars, and the NASDAQ closed at 16388.24, which was 47.37 points higher. It rose after being close to deep-seated expectations of interest rate cuts. After that, expectations for interest rate cuts receded in response to a rise in inflation expectations from the NY Fed in April, and the exchange rate stalled. Furthermore, sales that were wary of the announcement of the consumer price index (CPI) scheduled for this week also became heavy, and the Dow began to decline, and the decline widened until the end of the game. High-tech was supported by the rise in Apple (AAPL) and NVDA (NVDA), which is preparing financial results, and the decline in interest rates paid off and maintained a positive zone, and ended in various ways.
Buying took precedence in the Tokyo stock market today. The Dow average fell for the first time in 9 days in the US stock market yesterday, but the rise in the Nasdaq Composite Index, which has a high high-tech stock ratio, and the Philadelphia Semiconductor Stock Index (SOX Index), which consists of major semiconductor-related stocks, became stock price support factors for high-tech stocks and semiconductor-related stocks in the Tokyo market. Also, the fact that the foreign exchange market continued to depreciate yen and maintain a high level of depreciation of the dollar, with 1 dollar = 156 yen 20 sen, also gave the market a sense of security. Meanwhile, the fall in the Dow Jones Industrial Average yesterday weighed on stock prices in the Tokyo market. Also, since the US wholesale price index (PPI) for April will be announced tonight and the US consumer price index (CPI) for April tomorrow, there was also a tendency to forego aggressive purchases in order to determine these, but buying was dominant during the donation stage. Note that the domestic corporate price index for April, which was announced before the start of trading, rose 0.9% from the same month last year. The median private sector forecast compiled by QUICK was up 0.8% from the same period.
By sector, mining, other products, shipping, steel, fisheries/agriculture, forestry, etc. are at the top of the price increase rate, while securities commodity futures, other financial industries, textile products, insurance, pulp and paper, etc. line up at the top of the price drop rate.
