The Nikkei fell for a second straight session in the morning Tokyo Stock Exchange session, and selling orders spread across AI-related stocks. The morning close was ¥68,512.30, while TOPIX rebounded slightly. Developments in AI-related stocks in the US market were reported as a background factor.
The Nikkei fell for a second straight session in the Tokyo stock market on the morning of the 9th, and selling orders increased, particularly for AI-related stocks, mainly in the technology sector.
The morning close was ¥68,512.30, down ¥529.81 from the previous day, while TOPIX stood at 4,092.50, up 1.04 points.
It was reported that OpenAI, which develops generative AI, had annualised revenue well below market expectations in the previous day's US market, and the resulting retreat in expectations for AI market growth was cited as a selling factor.
The move was said to have the potential to affect the week's trends in the Tokyo market through trading in AI-related stocks.
