Expectations for the US-China agreement also lead to a cautious approach to active buying and selling.

The Nikkei average fell for the first time in eight trading days. It closed at 36,779.66 yen, a decrease of 51.03 yen, with an estimated Volume of 2.1 billion 50 million shares. Buying started strongly driven by expectations for US-China trade negotiations and momentarily rose to 36,942.38 yen right after the market opened. However, ahead of the Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) results, active trading was restrained, and afterward, there was continued stagnation around last week's closing price. In the Main Board, the number of rising stocks exceeded 1,000, overall.
