The Nikkei Average was 434.01 yen higher than the previous business day, and trading began by reducing the increase from the previous closing price (39346.92 yen) to 39221.39 yen, which was 434.01 yen higher than the previous business day. Note that Nikkei 225 futures at lunchtime continued to rise and shrink. The Nikkei Average, the front market, started with little sense of direction, but amid voices that consolidated purchases were made in futures, it became a strong movement that was in the 39,000 yen range since 4/15. Asian stocks are moving in the positive zone across the board, but there is a perception that the Nikkei Average at the time of backwardness is slightly higher in view of long-term interest rates and exchange rate trends.
