Japan's Nikkei Posts 3 Percent Increase Tuesday

(MENAFN) Japan's primary equity benchmark experienced a dramatic surge exceeding 3 percent during Tuesday's morning trading session, driven by widespread investor appetite following strong overnight performance on Wall Street.

The 225-issue Nikkei Stock Average climbed 1,614.86 points, representing a 3.07 percent gain from Monday's close, reaching 54,270.04 as of 10:30 a.m. local time Tuesday.

The rally reflected broad-based buying momentum across multiple sectors, with investors demonstrating renewed confidence in Japanese equities following positive sentiment emanating from U.S. markets. The sharp upward movement marks one of the most significant single-session gains in recent trading periods.

Within the top-tier Prime Market, nonferrous metal stocks emerged as the session's strongest performers, alongside banking shares and electric appliance manufacturers. These three sectors collectively drove the benchmark's substantial morning advance.

The buying activity suggests market participants are positioning themselves strategically amid shifting global economic conditions and evolving monetary policy expectations. Financial analysts noted the heightened volatility reflects increased trader responsiveness to international market movements.

The surge underscores the continuing correlation between Asian and American equity markets, with overnight gains in New York frequently influencing opening sentiment across Tokyo's trading floors. Market observers will monitor whether the momentum sustains through afternoon trading sessions.
