The Nikkei average fell significantly for the seventh consecutive business day. With a drop of 1,285.34 yen, it closed the trading day at 37,869.51 yen (with a volume estimate of 2.1 billion 10 million shares), falling below the 38,000 yen mark for the first time in about three months since April 26.
