Nikkei Gains for Fifth Day
A report indicates that the Japanese Nikkei index has risen for the fifth consecutive session, supported by gains in stocks of companies related to artificial intelligence. The index increased by 1.30% to close at 66,364.20 points, driven by increases in semiconductor and banking stocks, such as Mitsubishi UFJ and Sumitomo Mitsui, which posted the strongest performance. The rise was fueled by strong demand for technology shares ahead of the deadline to receive dividends, while SoftBank's stock declined following news of delays in a major data project. Overall, the performance reflects the strength of economic data and its impact on the market.
