Hitachi Ltd. advance 3.4%, Mitsubishi Electric Corp. gained 3%, and Panasonic Corp. jumped 2.9% after J.P. Morgan initiated coverage of the stock with an overweight rating. Shares of Sharp Corp. skyrockets 9% after a Nikkei news report stating the firm's October-March managing profit will come in well above prediction. Monetary industry wins involved 2.7% acquisition for both Daiwa Securities Group Inc. and Nomura Holdings Inc., and a 4.4% jump for Dai-ichi Life Insurance Co.. Among the real-estate majors, Mitsui Fudosan Co. rose 3.3%, and Mitsubishi Estate Co. flew 2.7%.
