Even after recovering to 40,000 yen, there was no significant adjustment and the range continued to rise.

The Nikkei Average rose significantly for the fourth consecutive business day, ending trading at 40,580.76 yen, up 506.07 yen (with a volume of approximately 1.69 billion shares traded). The market trend was dominated by buyers due to the rise of major stock indices in the US market the previous day. High-tech stocks with high index contribution pushed up the index, and the Nikkei Average extended its gains to 40,694.21 yen towards the end of the afternoon trading. The US market was closed on the 4th for Independence Day holidays, and trading was shortened on the 3rd, so there was not much aggressive trading.
