The willingness to buy on dips is strong when prices fall below 38,000 yen.

The Nikkei average rebounded for the first time in three days. It closed at 38,349.06 yen, up 214.09 yen (volume approx. 1.68 billion shares) at the end of trading. Selling pressure dominated from the beginning due to the previous day's decline in US stocks, causing the index to drop to 37,801.62 yen shortly after the start of trading. Subsequently, moves to buy back tech shares intensified, especially triggered by reports from US media that "US semiconductor regulations on China will not be stricter than before", leading to a turnaround in the market and an expansion of gains towards the afternoon session.
