0152 GMT - The landslide victory by Japan's ruling Liberal Democratic Party may eventually reshape its relationship with its coalition partner, Daiwa Securities' analysts say in a note. While the cooperative stance between the two is unlikely to shift in the near future, the Innovation Party's strategic leverage could diminish over time, they say. "In the medium-to-long term, the Innovation Party's positioning may shift," the analysts say. "As the LDP's reliance on other parties decreases in the Lower House, scenarios may arise where the Innovation Party's policy demands are no longer fully reflected."(megumi.fujikawa@wsj.com)
