Roman Tiraspolsky Blackstone ( BX ), the private equity giant, plans to invest $15B in Japan's property market over a three-year period, according to a media report on Tuesday. The firm is seeking to acquire properties such as hotels, data centers, and logistics facilities as Japanese companies focus on streamlining their assets to improve capital efficiency, Nikkei Asia reported, citing a Blackstone Real Estate executive. "Supply and demand fundamentals are as strong in Tokyo and Osaka as anywhere in the world. We see greater rent growth," Nadeem Meghji, global head of Blackstone Real Estate, told Nikkei. The company is also looking at properties in other cities, including Fukuoka in southwestern Japan. The weak yen and tensions between the U.S. and China make the Japanese real estate market more attractive to U.S. and European investors than regions like China, the article explained. The plans will build on Blackstone's ( BX ) presence in Japan. Last year, it acquired Tokyo Garden Terrace Kioicho, a complex on the site of the former Akasaka Prince Hotel in Tokyo, for about 400 billion yen ($2.5B).

Greggory DiSalvo JPMorgan ( JPM ) CEO Jamie Dimon said the U.S. government could help limit AI-related job losses by creating incentives for businesses to do "the right thing." "If all of a sudden it [AI] creates unemployment, that’s a big problem for society,” Dimon said during a conference on Tuesday, according to CNBC . “But the government could create a system of incentives that business does the right thing to retrain people, early retirement, moving people… if we have the right system in place, we can accommodate much quicker," he added. Dimon also warned that AI will likely have a much quicker impact on the job market than past technologies. “It’s coming; it’s going to come quickly,” Dimon said. “This one may be quicker … so therefore, can we accommodate the people if they lose their jobs quickly enough? And the answer is, I don’t know that’s going to happen, [but] I always like to be prepared.” More on JPMorgan Chase, SPDR S&P 500 ETF Trust, etc. Private Credit: Why It's Not 2008 Soaring Bond Yields, Falling Yen, And Big Wage Gains Leave BOJ In A Dither Dow Jones And U.S. Stock Market Outlook - Wall Street Uncertain Amid U.S.-Iran (Potential) Talks Jamie Dimon says Iran war may bring lasting peace to the region SA analyst warns that markets are at the mercy of the U.S.-Iran conflict

Investors are also watching how durable demand for its AI-driven government work remains. Trading volume reached 54.3 million shares, coming in nearly 13% above its three-month average of 47.9 million shares. Palantir Technologies IPO'd in 2020 and has grown 1,529% since going public. S&P 500 (SNPINDEX:^GSPC) slipped 0.36% to finish Tuesday at 6,557, while the Nasdaq Composite (NASDAQINDEX:^IXIC) fell 0.84% to close at 21,762. Among leading technology names, industry peers Microsoft (NASDAQ:MSFT) closed at $372.74 (-2.68%) and Alphabet (NASDAQ:GOOGL) finished at $290.44 (-3.85%), reflecting broader pressure on high-valuation software stocks. Palantir stock dropped with general tech weakness today, but there were also optimistic signs for the company’s continued strong growth. Valuation has always been a concern with Palantir stock , as it still trades for a future price-to-sales ratio of about 50 despite soaring revenue. Continue reading
