The prevailing view is that the Nikkei 225 will bottom out and rebound next week. A potential recovery in AI-related stocks after their post-US-midterm-election correction is expected to coincide with continued high crude oil prices.
According to next week's market outlook, the Nikkei 225 is expected to rebound after bottoming out. Particular attention is focused on its performance from the 9th to the 13th, and some observers point to the possibility of buying spreading as investors cover short positions.
Although there was a sharp decline centered on AI-related stocks after the US midterm elections, some believe buying could spread on the back of their relative undervaluation. However, no information specifies a particular timing or identifies specific stocks.
Although there have been reports that concerns about a large-scale US attack on Iran have receded, the outlook for negotiations remains unclear, and crude oil prices are expected to stay elevated. With these factors coexisting, next week's market outlook remains uncertain.
