On the 20th, the Tokyo stock market and the Nikkei stock average dropped by more than 600 yen at one point.

After the Bank of Japan decided to revise some of the current large-scale monetary easing measures, sell orders have spread over fears of a slowdown in the Japanese economy.

In the Tokyo stock market on the 20th, in response to the Bank of Japan's decision to revise part of the current large-scale monetary easing measures, sell orders spread to a wide range of stocks immediately after the start of trading in the afternoon, and the Nikkei Stock Average rose. At one point, the price was reduced by more than 600 yen.



A market insider said, "The partial revision of the Bank of Japan's monetary easing policy was a big surprise for the market. The rapid appreciation of the yen in the foreign exchange market raised concerns about worsening performance of export-related companies. There are also concerns that corporate capital investment and private investment in housing will be curtailed."
