The Nikkei average fell by 29 points, weighed down by selling on the wait for a rebound and the strengthening of the yen = 13th afternoon session.

On the 13th, the Nikkei average stock price in the afternoon session fell slightly by 29.06 yen to 36,790.03 yen compared to the previous day, while the TOPIX (Tokyo Stock Price Index) rose by 3.45 points to 2,698.36 points, continuing its upward trend. In the morning, following the rise in the Nasdaq Composite Index, which has a high ratio of tech stocks, and the SOX (Philadelphia Semiconductor Index) which has a significant impact on Japan's semiconductor-related stocks, buying started to take precedence. However, afterwards, it was pressured by profit-taking selling that awaited a rebound.
