The immediate stance is to Buy on dips [closing].

The Nikkei Average declined for five consecutive trading days, ending at 38,813.58 yen, down 268.13 yen (estimated Volume of approximately 2.2 billion shares). Following the perception that the results of the USA Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) were hawkish, the major stock indices in the USA fell the previous day, leading to risk-averse selling. The Nikkei Average dipped to 38,355.52 yen shortly after the market opened. However, as the yen weakened to the mid-154 yen range against the dollar, it provided support for the market, while the Bank of Japan continued its financial measures.

The Nikkei average has fallen for five consecutive days, influenced by the decline in U.S. stocks, but the decrease in value has narrowed due to the "rate hike being put off."

On the 18th, the US Stocks market continued to decline. The Dow Jones Industrial Average fell by 1,123.03 dollars to 42,326.87 dollars, while the Nasdaq dropped by 716.37 points to 19,392.69 points. Ahead of the announcement of the Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) results, a wait-and-see attitude strengthened, resulting in mixed trading after the opening. While the Dow average, which had been declining until the previous day, saw some buying in major stocks and rose, the Nasdaq started off slightly lower. The FOMC is expected to raise the main policy interest rate by 0.25% as anticipated.
