As you all know, the current Nikkei Average is affected by overpriced stocks. The sharp decline yesterday was down about 500 yen for only the 3 stocks of Tokyo Electron, Advantest, and SoftBank Group. However, most bank stocks held personally are positive, and the Nikkei Average has nothing to do with it. Conversely, when it went up 1000 yen, it went down a bit. Similar to US stocks, whether the Dow or NASDAQ indices rise or fall drastically, if individual stocks are solid, they will not be affected much. Stock trading has a strong mental element. More than achievements. That's why Trump and Mr. Musk's statements have a huge impact. Performance has nothing to do with it. It is important to be tenacious and keep holding the stocks you believe in (buy more).
