The Thai floods, which also disrupted the supply chain, hit late last year just as the automakers were recovering from the March disaster disruptions. Nissan's vehicle sales for the first nine months of the fiscal year rose in all key regions, except for disaster-struck Japan, with sales up 12 percent in North America, up nearly 21 percent in Europe and up 20 percent in China. The auto market in Japan has been relatively stagnant in recent years so Nissan is investing in growth in other markets such as Mexico, Brazil, China, India and Indonesia. Nissan stock rose 2.4 percent to 774 yen. The quarterly results were released after the stock market closed.
