Japan’s Topix Hits New All-Time High

Japan’s Topix Index jumped 0.72% to a new all-time high of 2,988 on Thursday, while the Nikkei 225 climbed 0.65% to 41,059, marking a third straight session of gains. The rally followed strong overnight performance on Wall Street, fueled by robust corporate earnings, as investors largely brushed off fresh US tariff announcements.

President Donald Trump unveiled a 100% tariff on imported semiconductors, excluding firms building in the US, and doubled tariffs on Indian goods to 50% in response to continued Russian oil imports. Top performers included Fujikura (+5.3%), Sony Group (+4.1%), SoftBank Group (+1.3%), Socionext (+3.9%), and Mitsubishi UFJ (+1.9%). In contrast, chip-related names underperformed, with Tokyo Electron down 2.5% and Disco off 1.8%. Toyota Motor also dropped 1.5% after cutting its annual operating profit forecast amid pressure from US tariffs.(ayu)
