The Nikkei 225 is expected to fall sharply for a second consecutive session in the Tokyo market on the 6th, with risk aversion spreading against the backdrop of the previous day’s decline in U.S. equities. Concerns over data center construction have spread through U.S. markets, focusing attention on a fall below ¥60,000 for the Nikkei 225.
Views have emerged that the Nikkei 225 will fall sharply for a second consecutive session in the Tokyo market on the 6th, as selling spread across U.S. equities, particularly semiconductors and other AI-related stocks, amid concerns over data center construction. This is likely to spread a risk-averse stance to the Tokyo market.
The Nikkei 225 could fall below the previous day’s close of ¥61,077, with a break below the ¥60,000 level expected. In U.S. trading on the 5th, the Dow Jones Industrial Average and other indexes reportedly fell broadly.
