The Nikkei Average fell immediately after the market opened on the 25th, and selling spread across semiconductor-related stocks. The move was attributed to a wait-and-see stance ahead of Nvidia's U.S. earnings announcement and the continuation of selling in semiconductor stocks in the U.S. market.
The Nikkei Average fell immediately after the market opened on the 25th. Investors focused on the market's moves just after the open, as prices declined in the early session of the Tokyo market.
One factor was the increasingly strong wait-and-see stance ahead of Nvidia's U.S. earnings announcement. It was also suggested that the decline followed the trend of semiconductor-related stocks being sold in the U.S. market.
Some reports also said that this trend could make investors more aware of concerns about supply and demand conditions for semiconductor-related stocks.
