In the morning session of the Tokyo stock market, the Nikkei average rebounded to 38,295.13, up 160.16 yen from the previous trading day. Initially trading lower due to a decline in US stocks, the excessive caution stemming from speculation about US semiconductor regulations under the Biden administration eased, leading to induced buying.
The Nikkei average opened 199 yen lower and then expanded its decline to around 330 yen lower, down to 37,801.62 yen temporarily. Anticipation of the US market's decline in tech stocks led to selling pressure, pushing down domestic related stocks and the index. However, it quickly rebounded below the psychological milestone of 38,000 yen and transitioned to trading around that milestone.
