Nothing Stands Out In The Weekly Security Flow Data

JAPAN
The latest weekly international security flow data includes 2 weeks' worth
of statistics, in lieu of the Japanese holiday that was observed at the
back end of last week.
  • Japanese investors shed Y272.8bn worth of foreign bonds over that
    period, with net selling in the most recent week more than reversing
    the net purchases seen in the week before.
  • Japanese investors have now lodged 3 consecutive weeks of net
    sales of foreign equities (equalling the cumulative amount of weeks
    in calendar 2020 which had seen net weekly sales before this run),
    although the last 2 weekly rounds of net flows pale in comparison to
    the record round of weekly net sales seen earlier this month.
  • For foreigners, the last couple of weeks have seen steady, albeit
    limited buying of Japanese bonds (for a net Y511.8bn over the 2
    weeks), while on the equities side of the ledger, mixed weekly net
    flows over the same period are pretty close to flat.
