Japan’s Nikkei share average rose nearly 2% on Tuesday, supported by gains in artificial intelligence-related stocks after Anthropic disclosed plans for a US initial public offering and Wall Street’s semiconductor index advanced, Reuters reported.
The Nikkei climbed 1.91% to 63,374.45 as of 0142 GMT, after rising as much as 2.4% earlier in the session. The benchmark was on track to snap a three-session losing streak. The broader Topix index gained 0.61% to 3,997.09.
