Who are the foreign investors mainly buying Japanese stocks?
On January 20, the Tokyo Stock Exchange announced the monthly “Region-by-Region Overseas Investors in Japanese Stocks,” which confirmed last year’s regional trading trends by foreigners. The total trading activity in the three key regions—North America, Europe, and Asia—sold more than ¥4.6 trillion in nine months from January to September, but in the three months from October onward there was a net purchase of about ¥2.5 trillion.
Figure 1 illustrates this, showing that Europe was the main driver last year, while movements in other regions were smaller. The net buying amount for Europe in the three months after October last year was as large as about ¥2.2 trillion.
