Japan’s Nikkei share average rallied on Thursday, supported by improving investor sentiment after measures by the U.S. Treasury to stabilise the bond market triggered a sharp decline in U.S. yields and revived demand for riskier assets, according to a report by Reuters.
The benchmark Nikkei 225 rose 1% to 65,982.49 at the midday break, while the broader Topix gained 0.91% to 4,048.72.
