Sony lifts operating profit outlook to ¥1.72 trillion as music sales climb 21%, eyes GTA VI boost for PS5

AI Market Summary
Sony raised its FY operating profit forecast to ¥1.72T after June-quarter operating profit jumped 40%, helped by a weaker yen, tariff refunds, and strong music revenue growth. The revision signals improving earnings power from its content-heavy portfolio even as games sales were flat and hardware faces margin pressure from component costs. The upbeat guidance is a near-term catalyst for Sony's equity and related Japan consumer/entertainment exposure.
