At the close on the 22nd, the number of rising stocks in the Nikkei average constituent stocks was 46, the number of falling stocks was 178, and the number of unchanged stocks was 1.

The Nikkei average fell significantly and has been declining for four consecutive days. At the end of the morning session, the average was 39,593.81 yen, down 469.98 yen (-1.17%) from the previous day, and the trading volume was approximately 0.7 billion shares. On the 19th, the US stock market continued to fall. The Dow Jones Industrial Average fell 377.49 dollars (-0.93%) to 40,287.53 dollars, the NASDAQ fell 144.28 points (-0.81%) to 17,726.94, and the S&P 500 fell 39.59 points (-0.71%) to 5,505.00 at the close of trading. Due to concerns that a system failure would cause confusion in the world economy, the market declined after opening. Selling to close positions ahead of next week's earnings of high-tech companies also weighed on the market. Although the market rebounded as the system recovered, it remained sluggish throughout the rest of the day. Following the decline of US stocks, the Tokyo market opened with selling pressure. The Nikkei average, which started below 40,000 yen due to the decline of electric and precision equipment-related stocks such as semiconductor stocks, steadily expanded its decline and fell to the 39,500 yen range for the first time since July 2nd. Although the foreign exchange and bond markets remained stable, more than 80% of the stocks in the main board market fell, leading to a market-wide decline.
