The Nikkei Stock Average started with a 112-yen appreciation, and temporarily rose 201 yen to 32,708.53 yen, reaching a post-bubble high of 32,708.53. However, after that, the rate of increase gradually decreased, and around 10:00 am, it turned negative. It has risen over 1,600 yen in four consecutive surges up to the previous day, renewing the post-bubble high price, and profit-taking sales have become dominant due to overheating. Stocks with a large index contribution led the decline, pushing the index down.

When the price fell below 32,000 yen, a psychological milestone, there was some bargain buying, but the downward pressure intensified towards the end, and the price closed at a low price.
