Another Round Of Net Weekly Buying Of Foreign Bonds

The latest round of weekly international security flow data revealed the third straight week of net purchases of foreign bonds by Japanese investors, pushing the 4-week rolling sum of the measure into positive territory for the first time since late April. Elsewhere, Japanese investors ended a 3-week run of net purchases of foreign equities, although that particular round of net flows was relatively light.

• Foreign investors lodged a third straight week of net purchases of Japanese bonds, although the weekly net sum moderated in w/w terms. Foreigners shed Japanese equities in net terms for a second consecutive week, although that particular round of weekly net flows remained limited in the grander scheme of things.
