During the period from the 5th to the 9th, the Nikkei 225 is expected to reach the ¥70,000 milestone for the first time in approximately 3 months, with conditions expected to remain favorable for funds to flow into Japanese stocks. Some U.S. employment indicators came in below market expectations, causing expectations of an early Federal Reserve rate hike to recede temporarily, which was cited as the background. Nikkei 225 futures were said to have temporarily exceeded ¥70,000 in night trading on the Osaka Exchange.
Following the indicators released on the 7th, the yen is expected to trade with limited downside, and the Japanese currency may remain firm.
