Our money-flow reading (a gauge of net buying pressure) is 44.3, labelled decelerating-up, meaning still positive but slowing, and it is down 13.4 points over 21 sessions. On Friday's close of JPY 2,201.50 the stock crossed back above the average close of the last 200 sessions, JPY 2,192.58, by just 0.4%.
