The Nikkei 225 Index (Nikkei average) in Japan started the day at 39,866.36, up 281.78 points (0.71%) from the previous trading day, marking its third consecutive increase. At one point, the Nikkei Index even regained the psychological support level of 40,000.

Asian stock markets are showing strength due to the easing tensions in the Middle East following the Israel-Iran ceasefire, and expectations that the deadline for trade negotiations with the United States may be extended.
