Japan's Nikkei Stock Average declined for the third consecutive session, driven primarily by falling technology shares. The market experienced a pullback following recent highs, with investors exhibiting caution amid concerns of short-term overheating. Despite the downward trend, the Nikkei showed some resilience with limited downside support. The decline in Tokyo stocks was influenced by weak chip shares and a drop in U.S. tech stocks. Additionally, the Bank of Japan intervened in the foreign exchange market for the 27th time in the afternoon, reflecting ongoing efforts to stabilize the yen. Market participants are awaiting upcoming events, including a U.S. Federal Reserve event, which is also attracting attention from the Bank of Japan.
