# Japanese Shares Rebound on Trump Remarks

The Nikkei 225 Index climbed 1.2% to above 53,400 while the broader Topix Index rose 0.9% to 3,622 on Thursday, snapping a five day losing streak as Japanese shares tracked Wall Street higher amid easing geopolitical and trade tensions between the US and Europe.

President Donald Trump ruled out the use of force to acquire Greenland and dialed back tariff threats against European countries after reaching a framework for a future agreement.

Meanwhile, Japan’s exports rose for a fourth consecutive month to a record value in December, with demand from China holding steady despite ongoing diplomatic frictions.

Technology stocks led the rebound, including Kioxia Holdings (8.1%), Advantest (2.4%), Lasertec (2.8%), Tokyo Electron (2.5%) and SoftBank Group (1.9%).

Heavyweight banks also advanced, with Mitsubishi UFJ up 1.3%, Sumitomo Mitsui gaining 1.5% and Mizuho Financial rising 2.2%.
