Japanese Stocks Break Records as Tariff Truce Lifts Asia #geopolitics #leawatch #breakingnews
On August 12th, Japan 225 hit the record of 42,849.67. Tech change and export led the charge boosted by the foreign investors and a weaker yen. The real spark was the 90-day pause, the US and China tariff fight, acing the trade war fears and lifting markets across Asia. Ship makers like Tokyo Electron, Advanc Test and Laser Tech jumped on the AI boom with a soft bank adding extra fuel. Even the gold lost some shine as investors poured into stocks betting on more gains ahead. We are living in the world shaped by US and China rivalry, war in Ukraine and climate shocks and the rise of AI. Business schools are now making geopolitics as a core subject, preparing leaders for a future where rare highs like today’s shine brightly in uncertain times.
Nikkei 225 smashes a record 42,849.67 as a 90-day U.S.-China tariff truce sparks optimism.
Weaker yen fuels exports, tech stocks surge on AI chip demand, and foreign investment pours in.
In a volatile world, even small wins can set markets on fire.
