[NY Market Data]
The NY market on the 20th rose. The Dow Inc average closed up $498.02 at $42,840.26, and the NASDAQ ended trading up 199.83 points at 19,572.60. Selling was prominent in some tech stocks, causing a drop at the opening; however, it rose supported by the November Personal Consumption Expenditures (PCE) price index suggesting progress in mitigating inflation. The Dow Inc average briefly rose more than $800 compared to the previous day, but today was a day of "triple witching," where the expiration dates of stock index futures, stock index Single Options, and individual stock options coincided, leading to selling due to position adjustments, and the threat of a government shutdown weighed on investor sentiment, causing a struggle in growth in the afternoon. By sector, Banks, Property Service, and Semiconductors along with manufacturing equipment rose, while Property Service and development, Autos, and Auto Parts fell. The Chicago Nikkei 225 futures settlement price was 38,885 yen, up 175 yen compared to Osaka during the day.
