05.11.2025 โ‡ข The Day the Nikkei Average Plummeted Below 50,000 Yen
โŒจJapanese media on November 5, 2025, primarily focused on the Nikkei average's sharp decline, dropping over 2,000 yen and falling below the 50,000 yen mark in early trading. This economic shift was linked to a sell-off in US tech stocks and concerns about AI market overheating, as noted by Nikkei Shimbun and Yahoo News Japan. Concurrently, US political developments, including the Democrats' sweep in major elections and the ongoing US government shutdown, remained a significant focus. International trade adjustments, such as China's suspension of US tariffs and Toyota's revised profit forecast amid Trump tariffs, also received attention. Domestically, discussions continued on office rent increases in Tokyo and the prime minister's stance on the Moritomo issue.
