World financial markets soared to new heights on Tuesday, buoyed by a significant surge in Japan's indices following Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi's election triumph. Investors are now keenly awaiting key U.S. economic data.
Japan's Nikkei 225 climbed 2.3%, continuing its upward trend, while the MSCI All-Country World Index also saw gains. Analysts attribute Japan's optimism to Takaichi's fiscal stimulus plans, unexpectedly boosting Japanese bonds and yen.
