The Nikkei average declined for the first time in five days. It ended trading at 39,091.17 yen, down 304.43 yen (with an estimated volume of 1.4 billion 40 million shares). The drop was influenced by profit-taking after the previous day's decline in U.S. stocks. Having risen nearly 1,200 yen over the previous four days led to a cautious approach to short-term highs, making profit-taking more likely. As the market moved into the latter half, the decline widened, reaching a low of 38,940.44 yen at one point. However, around the 39,000 yen mark, some dip buying and value purchases slowed the decline somewhat.
