Company snapshot — Nikon

7731.T in five paragraphs: what it makes and sells, where it sits in the Closelooknet stack, who it is priced against, why we track it, what we watch. Research diary, not advice.

What it does
Nikon makes precision optical equipment, cameras and semiconductor lithography systems, the steppers and scanners that project circuit patterns onto silicon wafers. It is based in Tokyo and has supplied chipmakers with exposure tools for decades, alongside its long-standing camera and optics business.
Where it sits in the stack
In our Rubin Build-Out 100 index, Nikon sits in Layer 2, Fabrication, within the Lithography sleeve, the tool set that patterns silicon at advanced nodes. Foundries cannot proceed to etch or deposition without a lithography step, so Nikon is a supplier constraint on how much wafer capacity can be turned into finished dies.
Who it is priced against
Closelooknet's peer group places it with the other lithography scanner makers, ASML and Canon, on the reasoning that these are the firms whose tools pattern silicon for advanced-node foundries.
Why Closelooknet tracks it
Nikon holds a seat in our Rubin Build-Out 100 index. It carries a Closelooknet score, but only one module has been scored so far, so the read on it is still being built.
What the diary watches
The diary watches whether Nikon's lithography tools keep pace with the move to extreme ultraviolet exposure or remain confined to older deep-ultraviolet nodes, which would shape its share of Layer 2 demand.

Nikon (7731.T) trades on the TSE exchange in Japan, and sits in Layer 2 of the build-out stack. Constituent of Rubin Build-Out 100.

How to use this chart

Toolbar

  • Range — 1M to MAX on daily closes. 1D/5D switch a US stock cell to 5-minute intraday bars; index and foreign cells fall back to 1M daily with a note.
  • Grid — 1×1 up to 2×2. Cells are synchronized: pan or zoom one and the others follow the same dates; the crosshair tracks across all of them. 4 INDICES loads Rubin · HALO · AEI · AW40 side by side.
  • Type / Scale — OHLC, line or area; linear or log price axis.

Picking a series

  • Tap the box in a cell's header to browse every Closelooknet series — headline indices, sub-indices, sectors, layers of all six families — plus the constituents.
  • Or type any ticker (NVDA, 7203.T, ASML.AS …) and press Enter — it charts in the cell straight from our data lake.

Studies

  • Overlays / Oscillators rows toggle the standard set (SMA, Bollinger, RSI, MACD …) per cell.
  • Levels (stock cells) draws the structure engine's support lines — regression bands, pivot cluster, SMA-200, the active fib zone.

Drawing

  • Tap a tool (Trend, Ray, H-Line, Fib, Channel, Rect, Note), then tap the chart once per point — the shape follows your finger or cursor between taps. The chart stops panning while a tool is armed; tap the tool again to release.
  • Drawings save per symbol in this browser and travel between the terminal and the asset page.
  • Delete key removes the selected drawing · Escape cancels a half-placed one · Clear wipes the symbol.

Wave counts

  • Wave places an Elliott count: tap the origin, then each wave end. Press Enter to stop early (inside wave 3 is fine) — dotted ghost targets sketch the remaining waves at guideline ratios.
  • On stocks the scanner's machine count appears automatically in grey — it is fully editable: drag any point, double-tap a label to remove it, Delete to dismiss it for good, Adopt to bring the machine's proposal back.
  • The sequence picker switches 1-5 / A-B-C / A-E / W-X-Y-Z; 1 2 3 cycles the degree; Subdiv starts a one-degree-smaller child count inside a wave.

Sharing

  • Card exports the cell as a branded PNG — chart, drawings and levels exactly as shown.
