Energy crisis approaching Silicon Valley.
The movement to aim for a gradual abolition of fossil fuel use for nuclear power is reported to be conflicting with the artificial intelligence (AI) revolution. AI technology, which requires a large amount of energy, is increasing its dependence on the power grid. And much of that power grid is supported by coal and natural gas generation. Companies in the oil, gas, and pipeline sectors are said to hold an important key to Silicon Valley's future. There is also a movement to support nuclear power generation as a measure against climate change.

The Nikkei average fell for the first time in three business days. It closed at 38,837.46 yen (-85.57 yen) with a volume of approximately 1.7 billion shares traded. The negative reaction to the consecutive rise in stock prices, the decline of NY Dow in the US market, and the temporary appreciation of the yen to 155 yen against the dollar weighed on the Nikkei average, and it widened the decline in the morning session, cutting the level down to 38,591.79 yen.

Buyback movements intensified, mainly in value stocks, and temporarily recovered to the 39,000 yen level
The Nikkei Average continues to rise. The transaction closed at 38923.03 yen (estimated turnover is 1.67 billion shares), which rose by 435.13 yen.

Buying took precedence over a wide range of stocks, and the Nikkei Average rose to 39032.50 yen before trading began, and during trading hours, it recovered to the 39,000 yen level, a psychological milestone for the first time in 3 business days since 5/29. just
