01.10.2026 ⇢ The Day Nidec Fought to Keep Its Listing
⌨

Bank of Japan's September Tankan showed large manufacturers' sentiment improving for sixth straight quarter to plus 24, slightly below forecasts, with non-manufacturers softening.

Oct. 1 brought tighter permanent residency requirements with higher income benchmarks and fees, alongside mandatory customer-harassment prevention measures for firms and municipalities.

Overnight coverage stayed on the Dubai-Tel Aviv Flydubai flight that plunged after a co-pilot allegedly stabbed a colleague, restrained by passengers before emergency landing in Saudi Arabia.

Domestic corporate attention shifted to Hiroshima Carp cutting four players including last season's batting champion over 'zombie tobacco,' and to Nidec's Kyoto press conference where its new president and PwC Japan faced questions on improper accounting and listing survival.

Evening reports tracked a car striking pedestrians in Kobe's Sannomiya killing a woman in her 20s, talks to integrate three Tohoku regional banks, and Typhoons No.26 near Izu and newly formed No.27.
