【Japan Stock Closing Review】 The situation in the Middle East waits for Trump's decision! The Nikkei 225 rose and then fell, and the United States has no time to negotiate with Tokyo.
On Friday, June 20, the Japanese Nikkei index relinquished early gains and ultimately closed lower, as geopolitical risks from conflicts in the Middle East dampened market sentiment, leading many investors not to Buy amid the uncertainty surrounding the escalating relations between Israel and Iran.
While the wait-and-see attitude is strengthening, the desire to Buy on dips remains strong.
The Nikkei average fell again. It ended trading at 38,403.23 yen, down 85.11 yen (with an approximate Volume of 2.7 billion 70 million shares). Selling started strongly, but as semiconductor-related stocks showed resilience, there was a rebound, with a moment in the early session reaching 38,646.16 yen, turning positive. However, concerns arose about oil procurement as a prominent Iranian parliament member cited the blockade of the Strait of Hormuz as one means to counter external threats, increasing caution. Amid concerns about the situation in the Middle East, active selling ensued.
