According to some investors, Japan's consumption stocks are projected to receive a boost in the latter half of the year as signs of spending recovery from wage hikes start to show. Sectors like food and retail, which have shown smaller gains compared to the broader market so far this year, are expected to benefit from the anticipated improvements in domestic demand. The recovery in consumption, driven by annual wage negotiations earlier in the year, is seen as a critical factor that could positively impact the market. However, risks such as the weakening yen and consumer spending below expectations persist.
