Fusion42 · 9 September 2026 · Fusion42 review

Japanese manufacturers' business confidence reached its highest since late 2021 in September, driven mainly by strong semiconductor and data-centre demand linked to AI-related capital spending.

This Wire brief sits within Fusion42's coverage of Semiconductors.
