As the decline in AI-related stocks worldwide continues, Meta’s announcement of a massive investment plan has amplified market anxiety, sending funds into safe assets. US long-term interest rates have also continued to fall, and the Tokyo market hit a 3-month low.
As stock markets worldwide weakened, investment trends in AI-related stocks, particularly in the United States, became a source of market concern. Meta’s announcement of a massive investment plan has been cited as a trigger.
Investment funds flowed into government bonds, regarded as safe assets, and interest rates have been falling worldwide.

US long-term interest rates plunged, with reports emerging of periods below 5%, and turmoil in overseas markets has also affected the Japanese market.
