Individually, Appiritz <4174> rebounded. Although the company was sold in the morning following a downward revision of its earnings forecast the previous day, it was reluctant to drop after the first round of sales. Due to the fact that it had fallen for four consecutive days, and the performance in the fourth quarter had recovered sharply, the company entered the afternoon session and saw buys and turned positive (Related Article 1、Related Article 2)。
Kaitori Kingdom <3181> continues to grow. It appears that the purchases were announced last weekend, valuing the monthly sales for February 2013. Regarding the monthly sales overview for February 2025, it was announced that existing stores increased by 4.7% and all stores increased by 27.3%, making it the highest monthly record. Nexon <3659>, ibis <9343>, and Cyberstep <3810> are also expensive.
On the other hand, the cover <5253> fell sharply. In addition to the selling that had risen sharply due to the announcement of the official smartphone game "DREAMS" the day before, it appears to be due to the softening of the overall market following the sharp drop in the US market the day before. Similarly, Kushim <2345>, which was bought the day before, was also pushed by profit-taking sellers.
Mega Chips <6875> is on a huge discount. The previous day's share price of SiTime Corporation, an equity method affiliate, fell sharply in the US market, and stocks that tend to be linked also remained weak. There are no Aiming <3911> or Doricom <3793> either.
In addition, no stocks have hit a new high since the start of the year in terms of game or entertainment, and SHIFT <3697>, Doricom, and Tokyo Tsushin Group <7359> have hit a new low since the start of the year.
