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.

After the opening, the market experienced an upward movement. The sharp drop the previous day, due to the indication from the Federal Reserve Board (FRB) of a slowdown in the pace of additional interest rate cuts during the Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC), was seen as an overreaction, leading to a wave of buying. The domestic Gross Domestic Product (GDP) for the July to September period was revised upward, and new unemployment Insurance claims were announced in the morning.

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.

The FOMC is expected to raise the main policy interest rate by 0.25% as anticipated.
