| 2026-05-21 17:30 JST | Market column reviewing May 21 trading describes Nvidia’s “monster” earnings and a broad AI/semiconductor rally, but emphasizes that the Nikkei’s roughly 1,880-point rebound was driven primarily by SoftBank Group, whose limit-up move alone lifted the index by over 800 points. It cites a Wall Street Journal report that OpenAI may file for a US IPO as soon as May 22, and stresses that with SoftBank owning around 11% of OpenAI, an IPO could significantly unlock the value of that stake. | 明日の株式相場に向けて＝エヌビディア無双とＳＢＧ大噴火に騒めく |
