Japanese Shares Rise as Soft Wage Data Tempers Hawkish Bets
Wednesday, October 08, 2025       08:01 WIB

The Nikkei 225 Index rose 0.4% to above 48,100, while the broader Topix Index gained 1% to 3,260 on Wednesday, recovering from the previous session's losses as weaker-than-expected wage data dampened expectations for a Bank of Japan rate hike.
Japan's real wages fell 1.4% in August from a year earlier, marking the eighth straight monthly decline as inflation continued to outpace income growth.
Investors also weighed Japan's political outlook after Sanae Takaichi, a long-time supporter of "Abenomics" stimulus policies, won the race to become the next prime minister.
Major gainers included Fujikura (+5%), Mitsubishi Heavy Industries (+2.8%), and IHI Corp (+5.6%).
In contrast, tech shares tracked Wall Street lower, with declines in Advantest (-1.1%), SoftBank Group (-1%), and Disco Corp (-1.9%).
