Ohayo Japan | Inches Higher Ahead of Nvidia Earnings
- US Stocks edged higher as the market awaits Nvidia earnings after the close on Wednesday
- Super Micro Computer fell 2.64% after Hindenburg Research released a report alleging accounting issues
- Sony is increasing the price of its PlayStation 5 console in Japan by about 20%
Japan Morning Connection: Sony, PPIH, 7&I
- Sony price hikes in Japan to have a mild positive impact. The stock still looks attractive after positives from recent earnings seem to have been lost in the recent volatility.
- PPIH continues to look attractive as a continued laggard as the market rotates out of the big retail/inbound winners such as Isetan Mitsukoshi.
- 7&I clearly showing how anti-takeover they are effectively asking for Govt protection to ward off Canada’s Alimentation Couche-Tard takeover approach.
