3.概要；【ニューヨーク２９日＝坂本裕寿】今年最後の取引となった二十九日のニューヨーク株式市場は、薄商いのなかを業績懸念を背景とするハイテク株の売りが膨らみ、大きく値を下げて終了した。ナスダック店頭市場の総合指数の終値は、前日比八七・二四ポイント安の二四七〇・五二と反落した。ダウ平均株価（工業株三十種）も同八一・九一ドル安の一万七八六・八五ドルと六営業日ぶりに下落して終了した。この結果、ナスダック指数は九一年以来、九年ぶりに前年末の終値を下回った。九九年末の終値と比べると、今年一年の下落率は３９・３％に達し、七四年に記録した３５・１％を下回る過去最悪の下落率となった。ダウ平均も九〇年以来十年ぶりに前年末の終値より値を下げ、年間下落率（６・２％）は八一年（９・２％）以来の大きさとなった。市場では「ナスダックの急落は、経営実態以上に株価が膨らんだハイテクバブルが完全に崩壊したことを物語る」（米証券アナリスト）との見方が強く、アメリカの経済成長を引っ張る形で十年間にわたって上昇を続けてきた株高ブームが大きな転機を迎えたと受け止められている。
