Softbank Corp rose 5.73 percent to 166,000 yen. Softbank is heavily invested in e-commerce and Internet ventures, some of which are listed on Nasdaq. The company has also been dominating headlines on an expected takeover by a Softbank-led consortium of failed Nippon Credit Bank (NBC). Sources close to the deal said Softbank will win an official go-ahead later on Thursday. The takeover would mark the first case of a non-financial firm fully entering the banking sector. biz.yahoo.com
