Nikkei Average Futures Rise 1.17% Amid U.S. Stock Gains; Nikkei Index Opens Higher at 138.29

Japan's Nikkei Average futures rose by 1.17%, buoyed by gains in U.S. stocks and stabilizing currency markets. The benchmark 10-year June Japanese Government Bond (JGB) futures increased by 0.15 points to 138.29. The Nikkei index opened significantly higher, reflecting positive sentiment from U.S. market performance and calmer foreign exchange rates, as reported by local financial news outlets. However, there are indications of a slight decline in Japan's 10-year bond futures, suggesting potential shifts in market trends.
