The Nikkei Stock Average fell for the first time in five days, finishing the trade at 39,470.44 yen, down 378.70 yen (estimated Volume 1.9 billion 90 million shares).

Although there were some moments where prices slightly recovered due to Buy orders on dips, the failure to stay above the SQ value (39,434.85 yen) invited selling pressure, and there were instances where it dropped to 39,247.41 yen towards the end of the morning session.

Continuing to fluctuate within the range of 39,000 to 39,500 yen.
The Nikkei average continued to rise, closing at 39,367.58 yen, up 207.08 yen (estimated volume of 1.7 billion shares). As the yen weakened to 151 yen per dollar, buying was led by export-related stocks, and the Nikkei average rose to 39,465.14 yen shortly after the opening. However, just before the psychological barrier of 39,500 yen, selling by those waiting for a rebound and profit-taking was evident, leading to some softening, with the index struggling to maintain its level, dipping to 39,171.69 yen towards the end of the morning session.

Buy on the dip at 39,000 yen.
The Nikkei Average rebounded, finishing with a gain of 69.33 yen at 39,160.50 yen (estimated volume of 1.7 billion 90 million shares). This came after the trend from the previous week's US market where some tech stocks were bought up, leading to a rebound in semiconductor-related stocks and other high-value shares, starting at 39,332.55 yen. However, after the initial buying subsided, selling in anticipation of a decline, particularly in semiconductors, and profit-taking selling intensified, causing declines to as low as 38,972.78 yen during the mid-morning session.
Profit-taking selling dominates ahead of US employment statistics.
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.
Japan will restart trade negotiations with Trump. Automobile tariffs will be the most critical game in this round!
① The U.S. president-elect Trump's trade war has caused significant headaches for global leaders, among which, Japan hopes to restart trade negotiations and has stated that there is a consensus to include the elimination of tariffs on autos and auto parts in the negotiations; ② The USA is Japan's largest export market, with autos accounting for one-third of Japan's export volume. In the fiercely competitive auto transformation process, U.S. tariffs could very well become the "last straw" that overwhelms the Japanese auto industry.
