July 10, 2026, 1:55 AM EDT. Japan's Finance Minister Satsuki Katayama told state pension funds, including the Government Pension Investment Fund (GPIF), to put more cash into the domestic market. The comment sent the yen higher and pushed the Nikkei up. GPIF manages $1.81 trillion, so any shift in where it invests draws global attention. The suggestion comes after government bonds sold off and with politicians facing questions about monetary policy. Over in South Korea, SK Hynix's $26.5 billion U.S. debut kept AI tech names in focus as investors heated up the valuation and profit debate. Traders are also watching inflation numbers from Germany and France for the next signal.
