The Nikkei 225 Index rose 0.8% to trade above 63,700 on Thursday, setting fresh all-time highs as strong corporate earnings and upbeat guidance reinforced investor confidence, while sustained demand for artificial intelligence-related stocks continued to drive gains. Japanese equities also mirrored a tech-led rally on Wall Street overnight, even as accelerating US inflation fueled concerns that the Federal Reserve could still opt for another rate hike. At the same time, markets remained focused on the meeting between US President Donald Trump and Chinese President Xi Jinping, with discussions expected to prioritize trade relations. Among individual movers, gains were led by Kioxia Holdings (1.7%), Furukawa Electric (1.5%), Advantest (2.8%), Fanuc (10.4%) and Resonac Holdings (15.6%). In contrast, mining firm Mitsui Kinzoku fell 11.8% after issuing a weaker profit forecast for FY2027 despite projecting higher sales.
