The fact that the Russian private military company Wagner caused a rebellion in the country and that the situation settled down for the time being is also likely to increase the interest of the market.

Due to uncertainty about the future of the overseas economy, the prices of foreign demand stocks such as machinery and automobiles are likely to fall.
