Nikkei Rises Supported by Wall Street Gains

The Nikkei index closed higher in its latest session, supported by positive momentum from Wall Street and improved investor risk appetite.

Nikkei benefited from gains in US markets as optimism over corporate earnings and stable economic data boosted sentiment in Tokyo.

Technology and industrial shares led the advance, while Nikkei continued to attract investment flows amid brighter earnings expectations for Japanese companies.
