Trend Micro Incorporated <4704> surged on Friday on strong investor interest, updating its year-to-date high. On Thursday, Trend Micro announced that its TrendAI corporate brand joined Project Glasswing, an initiative led by U.S.-based Anthropic to accelerate the identification and remediation of software vulnerabilities, fueling buying interest. As part of the initiative, TrendAI is utilizing Anthropic's Claude Mithoth from the preview stage to review and analyze software code. This allows cybersecurity researchers to quickly discover vulnerabilities, facilitating coordinated disclosure, prioritized remediation, and risk reduction via virtual patches.

3-D Matrix,Ltd. <7777> hit its daily limit-up threshold at one point on Friday. Before the market open, the firm announced that its preliminary consolidated financial results for the fiscal year ended April 2026 are expected to outperform previous forecasts. Net sales are projected to reach 10.86 billion yen (up 57.0% year-on-year), up from the initial forecast of 9.94 billion yen. Operating income is tracking at 1.34 billion yen, up from the previously estimated 960.1 million yen and reversing a 1.16 billion yen loss in the prior year, while net income is expected to hit 4.19 billion yen, up from the initial 3.47 billion yen forecast and reversing a 2.5 billion yen prior-year loss. The upward revision follows strong fourth-quarter sales growth, particularly in the U.S., which outpaced expectations after figures were previously updated on May 19, while changes in expenses remained minimal.

Nuclear power-related names advanced broadly on Friday, with The Japan Steel Works, Ltd. <5631> and NIPPON GEAR CO.,LTD. <6356> rebounding sharply, while KIMURA CHEMICAL PLANTS CO., LTD. <6378> and OKANO VALVE MFG.CO.LTD. <6492> traded firmly. Headlines that the government plans to target the replacement of up to five nuclear reactors by the 2040s catalyzed buying across the sector. A subcommittee of the Advisory Committee for Natural Resources and Energy is scheduled to meet on Friday to present the revised proposal.
