Reflecting the rise in US stocks, there is a movement of autonomous rebound centered around technology stocks.
The Nikkei average rebounded for the first time in seven trading days. It closed at 39,161.34 yen, up 459.44 yen (with an estimated Volume of 1.78 billion shares). In addition to the rise in major stock indices in the USA markets on the previous weekend, the Nikkei average had dropped more than 1,100 yen over the last six trading days, leading to a surge in buying aimed at a self-rebound. It began above 39,000 yen, and although the increase narrowed due to selling as buyers took a pause, Semiconductors and other related stocks remained strong, helping to drive the market.
The Nikkei Average rebounded for the first time in seven days, as buying prevailed due to the avoidance of a U.S. government agency shutdown.
Last weekend, the USA market's Dow Inc average closed up by 498.02 points at 42840.26 points, and the Nasdaq closed up by 199.83 points at 19572.60 points. While some tech stocks saw early selling, leading to a decline at the open, the November Personal Consumption Expenditures (PCE) price index suggested progress in inflation control, supporting an increase. The Dow Inc average briefly surged over 800 points higher compared to the previous day, but faced expiration of stock index Futures and Single Options for individual stocks.
Developments while keeping an eye on the exchange rate.
The Nikkei average has fallen for six consecutive trading days. It ended the day at 38,701.90 yen, down 111.68 yen (estimated Volume of 2.7 billion 10 million shares). Following the yen's depreciation after Bank of Japan Governor Kazuo Ueda's press conference, there was buying in export-related stocks, such as Automobiles, and the Nikkei average began to rebound. Towards the end of the morning session, it rose to 39,039.68 yen. However, after Finance Minister Katsunobu Kato expressed concerns over the fluctuations in the foreign exchange market, including speculative movements, it was a trigger for short-term Futures.

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 fell for four consecutive trading days, ending at 39,081.71 yen, down 282.97 yen (estimated Volume of 2.1 billion 10 million shares). Selling began on the back of declines in major stock indices in the USA market the previous day. During the mid-morning session, it fell to 39,123.32 yen. However, buying on dips and the stability of US stock Futures in the China market and Extended hours trading led to a rise to 39,382.69 yen by the end of the morning session.

Before the central bank events in Japan and the United States, after a round of buying, there is a stalemate.
The Nikkei average declined for three consecutive trading days, ending at 39,364.68 yen, down 92.81 yen (estimated Volume 1.8 billion 90 million shares). Reflecting the flow of tech stocks being bought in the previous day's USA market, buying led the way, primarily focused on Semiconductors-related stocks. The Nikkei average began to rebound and extended upwards to 39,796.22 yen shortly after the start. However, ahead of events from the USA and Japan central banks, including the Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC), momentum for aggressive upward movement was limited, and after the buying activity settled, there were adjustments in holdings leading to Sell.

The December services PMI showed a near three-year high and indicated an acceleration in the pace of expansion, which helped to widen the gains, but the Dow Inc average continued to face resistance, resulting in a slight decline.

Profit-taking Sell is prevailing in response to the consecutive rise.
The Nikkei Stock Average fell for the first time in five days, finishing the trade at 39,470.44 yen, down 378.70 yen (estimated Volume 1.9 billion 90 million shares). In the previous day's US market, major stock price indices declined, and after recovering the significant 0.04 million yen mark the day before, profit-taking Sell orders were prioritized due to short-term overheating. Although there were some moments where prices slightly recovered due to Buy orders on dips, the failure to stay above the SQ value (39,434.85 yen) invited selling pressure, and there were instances where it dropped to 39,247.41 yen towards the end of the morning session.
