Japanese Nikkei climb on lower US yields, softer yen

Tokyo, -Japan’s Nikkei share average climbed on Friday, supported by the US Treasury yields and a weaker yen, although the index is on track to break its four -week finish line. The Nikkei rose 0.8% at 37,280.84 by afternoon breach, but has lost 1.25% so far this week. The wider Topix climbed 0.81% to 2,739.13, although on track to close 0.85% the week. Shutarou Yasuda, a market analyst at Tokyo Intelligence Laboratory, said: “Rising in the US Treasury returns had a break and brought the appetite for Japanese shares.” Recent sale has drawn some buyers on more attractive levels, with 30 years of returns reaching the highest in 19 months earlier in the session. Profits in yen terms increase when firms regain it to Japan. Hayashi, head of the investment research division at Iwaicosmo Securities.
