Kimura Chemical Industry (6378)/Speculation buying resurged with expectations that next-generation nuclear reactors and nuclear power plant construction would be a strong candidate in the second round of US investment finance
Kimura Chemical Industry (6378) 1847 yen +263
Main rise reasons include the profit-taking ahead of the US-Japan summit-related second round of financing for counterparty investment (2) (日米首脳会談関連) where next-generation reactors (such as SMR) and nuclear power plant construction were rekindled as popular speculative buys. Kimura Chemical Industry's nuclear power-related business is mainly developed in the Energy & Environment Business Division. Its strength lies in total engineering capabilities that handle design, manufacturing, installation work, and maintenance in-house, and it provides special equipment that fuses radiation shielding technology (lead, resin technology) with chemical plant technology. Okay Valve (岡野バルブ)6492 is also being bought for nuclear-related reasons.
