Mitsubishi UFJ saw its share prices rally for a sixth consecutive day on Tuesday, adding 3.03 percent to finish at $3.03 apiece as investor sentiment was buoyed by its recent acquisition of 9.98 million shares in financial services firm JACCS.

In a statement last week, MUFG said the transaction would be done through a capital increase by a third-party allotment and would allow MUFG to gain a 40-percent voting right in JACCS after closing.

According to MUFG, the acquisition forms part of its mission to beef up its domestic retail customer base, in which it expects JACCS to play a key role.

In other news, MUFG announced plans to withdraw from an international banking framework supporting decarbonization efforts, joining several of its global banking counterparts.

The Net Zero Banking Alliance, convened by the United Nations, promotes investment and lending projects with the goal of reducing greenhouse gas emissions to net zero by 2050.

MUFG became the third bank to withdraw, following Sumitomo Mitsui Financial Group and Nomura Holdings.

Overall, MUFG ranks 10th on our list of stocks that led Tuesday’s charge.
