Yoshimasa Maruyama, an economist at Nikko Securities, stated that considering the recent momentum of the Japanese stock market and the potential trend change driven by a stable, long-term government, the Nikkei index may reach around 65,000 points by the end of the year. Maruyama predicted that the index is expected to reach around 73,000 points by the end of 2027 and may reach around 80,000 points by the end of 2028. However, he pointed out: "If the Middle East conflict escalates not only with a rise in oil prices but evolves into a serious supply constraint issue, including stocks, the expected trend of asset prices may be revised downwards."
