The Nikkei 225 started sharply higher at the open, gaining ¥499.34. The program is scheduled to discuss market movements after the Tokyo market opened and developments in notable stocks.
Kioxia Holdings was reported to have been affected by the SOX index in the US market falling for a seventh consecutive day. Takashimaya, meanwhile, raised its operating profit outlook for the fiscal year ending February 2027 and indicated that it plans to increase its annual dividend.
Toho is expected to raise its outlook for the fiscal year ending February 2027, with net income forecast to decline by approximately 7% year on year. The decline in earnings is expected to narrow following the sale of Fuji HD shares.
BayCurrent's operating profit for the first half of the six months through August rose approximately 28% year on year. Growth in AI implementation and security-related services was said to have contributed.
