Japanese shares rose on Thursday, with the Nikkei 225 increasing by 0.7% to over 57,500 and the Topix up 0.4% to 3,822. This gain was influenced by a strong performance on Wall Street, particularly in technology stocks, as concerns over AI disruptions eased. The depreciation of the yen also boosted the earnings outlook for export-driven sectors. Notable technology stocks like Kioxia Holdings and Tokyo Electron saw significant gains.

Asia's stock market is thriving, with the MSCI Asia Pacific Index rising over 12% in 2026, contrasting with a 0.2% decline in the S&P 500 and a 2% drop in the Nasdaq 100, which has lost $1.5 trillion in market value. Investors are shifting focus to hardware companies benefiting from AI infrastructure, such as Samsung Electronics and Kioxia Holdings, while parts of Asia less affected by AI disruption, like Japan's insurance and real estate sectors, are also performing well. The correlation between Asian and US equities has weakened, indicating a growing divergence in market performance.
