The Japanese stock market is falling, following Wall Street's decline.

The Japanese stock market may fall, following the drop on Wall Street overnight. Despite NVIDIA's announcement of strong earnings, the reaction from investors has been lukewarm. This has dragged down the tech-heavy NASDAQ Composite Index, which may in turn affect Japanese technology and IT stocks. After setting a new closing high for two consecutive trading days, the Japanese stock market may also experience a technical correction. The Nikkei 225 index closed up 0.3% on Thursday, at 58,753.39 points, setting a new high.
