Against the background of a decline in US stocks and a strengthening yen, the price falls below 38,000 yen.
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. The negative investor sentiment was due to the sell-off of high-tech stocks in the US market the day before, as well as the appreciation of the yen, which accelerated to 1 dollar = 152 yen, the highest in about two and a half months, and affected a wide range of stocks. The rise and fall of stocks on the Tokyo Stock Exchange Prime board showed that the number of decliners exceeded 1,300, affecting the overall market.

Additionally, as the results of important inflation and economic indicators for this week have yet to be released, selling due to profit-taking has become dominant. The Chicago Nikkei 225 futures clearing price was 40 yen lower than that of Osaka, at 39.
