TOKYO: Japan's Nikkei climbed 2.2 percent on Wednesday, July 14 breaking above a key resistance level as tech firms gained after Intel results beat expectations, buoying overall sentiment.
Nikon Corp, a maker of steppers, surged 2.6 percent while other chip-linked shares were untraded due to a glut of buy orders.
The benchmark Nikkei rose 207.40 points to 9,744.73.
The Nikkei's 25-day moving average currently comes in around 9,660 and was seen as a key resistance level.
The broader Topix gained 1.6 percent to 868.23. - Reuters
