What affected the price movement of stock prices was the movement of foreign exchange rates.
On the 14th, in the foreign exchange market, where the yen appreciated rapidly and the dollar depreciated, there was a scene in the morning where the yen returned to the depreciation of the yen, albeit slightly.
As a result, there was a movement to buy back export-related stocks such as automobiles and semiconductors, and the Nikkei Stock Average rose by more than 400 yen at one point.
