With limited participants, export stocks are leading the market.
The Nikkei average continued to rise significantly, closing at 39,568.06 yen, up 437.63 yen (with an estimated Volume of 1.9 billion 60 million shares). With European and American markets closed, market participants were limited and the day started slightly lower. However, as the yen temporarily weakened to around 157 yen per dollar, export stocks such as Automobiles were actively bought, and the Nikkei average even extended its gains to 39,592.28 yen towards the end of the afternoon session. Additionally, as the final trading day for year-end settlements approached, individual tax-saving sell-offs also peaked.

Despite the absence of Overseas investors, a solid development is underway.
The Nikkei Average rebounded, finishing at 39,130.43 yen, up by 93.58 yen (with an estimated Volume of 1.7 billion 60 million shares). Buoyed by the previous day's rise in U.S. tech stocks, buying began early, pushing the Nikkei Average up to 39,180.59 yen shortly after the open. However, with European and American investors entering the Christmas holiday, market participation was low, leading to a shift to a negative trend due to position adjustments, with the index dropping to 38,927.16 yen during the middle of the morning session. The afternoon session saw a market environment characterized by strong stagnation.
The impact of rising U.S. tech stocks is limited, leading to a shift towards value stocks.
The Nikkei Average fell. It closed at 39,036.85 yen, down 124.49 yen (Volume estimated at 1.8 billion and 40 million shares). Following the rise in US stocks the previous day, buying began to lead, and shortly after the opening, it increased to 39,245.75 yen. However, with the Christmas holiday approaching, the movements of Overseas investors were sluggish, and there was no active push for higher prices. Subsequently, the focus shifted to profit-taking rebalance movements, and by the end of the first half, it dropped to 38,995.76 yen, approaching the key level of 39,000 yen.
The Nikkei average fell back, continuing a lack of direction as the Christmas holiday approaches.
On the 23rd, the US Stocks market continued to rise. The Dow Inc average increased by 66.69 points to 42,906.95 dollars, and the Nasdaq closed up by 192.29 points at 19,764.88. Caution was exercised due to the deterioration of the Consumer Confidence Index, leading to mixed results after the opening. Following the retreat of expectations for rapid interest rate cuts by the Federal Reserve, long-term Gold rates rose, causing the Dow Inc to decline. However, as high-tech Stocks were purchased in anticipation of a Santa Claus rally, the Nasdaq remained strong, expanding its gains towards the end of the trading session, benefiting the overall market.
