In 2024, a new ``NISA'' with expanded tax benefits will begin, and I think many people are concerned about this year's financial market movements when thinking about their assets. At the beginning of this year's Tokyo stock market on January 4th, the Nikkei Stock Average temporarily fell by more than 700 yen due to concerns about the economic impact of the Noto Peninsula Earthquake. In the foreign exchange market, the yen is weakening against the dollar, with the yen briefly hitting the 145 yen level for the first time in about three weeks. Meanwhile, in New York, the Dow Jones Industrial Average hit a new all-time high on January 2nd. Despite a downward trend over the weekend, there are many experts on Wall Street who are bullish about stock prices this year. What will happen to the financial market this year? This is a tweet from a reporter covering the market in New York. (Daisuke Ezaki, American Bureau Reporter) *The photo on the cover is a bronze bull statue near the New York Stock Exchange.
