Softbank Rises 15%, Erasing Yesterday's Loss, as Funds Start By Teo Chian Wei and Laura Lai
Tokyo, March 7 (Bloomberg) -- Softbank Corp. shares surged 15 percent, nearly erasing yesterday's slump, as investors bought the stock before the start of mutual funds later this week, analysts said. ``Fund Managers have money they need to put to work,' said Robert Sasaki, head of quantitative strategy at Jardine Fleming Securities Ltd. ``Softbank is a `New Japan' stock they will continue to buy `New Japan' stocks.'
Softbank fell 34 percent in the past six days on concern the company's purchase of a failed bank and the doubling of its share price in just two months means its stock is overvalued.
Today the stock rose 18,000 yen to 135,000 yen. |
