Stock price temporarily dropped over 500 yen 13:05 on May 1

In the Tokyo stock market on the 1st, selling orders spread immediately after the start of trading, and the Nikkei 225 stock price temporarily dropped above 500 yen.

Market officials said, “The results of economic indicators on personal consumption and employment announced on the 30th in the United States were worse than market expectations, and there is a renewed sense of uncertainty about the future of the global economy. Since the price had risen by more than the yen, many investors sell their stocks in order to secure profits before the consecutive holidays, and the range of price declines is increasing. "
