The Nikkei 225 rebounded in the Tokyo stock market on the morning of the 30th. It stood at ¥66,318.81 at the midday close, up ¥837.54, or 1.28%, from the previous day.
Buying of semiconductor and AI-related stocks supported the market's rise, with high-priced stocks such as SoftBank Group and Tokyo Electron attracting buying at times. The index temporarily gained more than ¥1,000.
With the end of the first half of the fiscal year approaching, domestic institutional investors are more likely to sell to adjust their positions, and buying momentum subsequently struggled to gain further ground. According to Nikkei QUICK News, the trend following gains in US semiconductor stocks spread to the Tokyo market.
