Shares in Japan rose on Friday with Nikkei 225 hitting a high unseen since 1990. With the Group of Seven (G7) summit underway, the country is hosting a number of high-ranking officials from all across the globe, including United States President Joe Biden.

During this week, various agreements with global partners have been announced. Meanwhile, the market sentiment was also seemingly boosted by a promising outlook that the debt saga in the United States will be wrapped up soon.

After briefly reaching 30,924, Nikkei 225 rose 0.67% at 2:43 am CET, going at 30,774.16.
