There were only happy faces on the Tokyo Stock Exchange in the initial trading on Wednesday, while the world holds its breath waiting for the election result in the USA.

The important Nikkei 225 index rose more than 3 percent in the initial trading, but had stabilized at up 2.5 percent by lunchtime. The broader Topix index was up 1.9 percent.

Even on the Shanghai and Shenzhen composite index, it was cautiously positive, up 0.2 and 0.6 percent, respectively. Hong Kong, on the other hand, had fallen by 2.6 percent.
