Sony Group surged 3.9% in Thursday’s trading session, closing at an all-time high and marking its fifth consecutive day of gains. The rally pushed the entertainment and tech conglomerate’s market value to ¥24.42 trillion (approx. $156 billion), solidifying its position as Japan’s second-most valuable company—trailing only auto giant Toyota.
The sustained uptick reflects investor optimism around Sony’s diversified business, spanning gaming, music, semiconductors, and entertainment. Analysts attribute the momentum to strong demand for PlayStation 5 consoles, robust box office performance (e.g., Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse), and growth in its image sensor division, a key supplier for smartphones and automotive applications.
With the stock now up over 20% year-to-date, Sony’s outperformance highlights its resilience amid global tech sector volatility. Market watchers suggest further upside could hinge on its ability to capitalize on AI-driven opportunities in gaming and content creation.
