Offshore Investors Sell Local Bonds For 5th Straight Week

JAPAN DATA

Offshore buying of Japan equities recovered some ground in the week ending August 11. We saw net inflows of ¥227.2bn, versus a modest outflow from the week prior. This pace of inflow is still down on what we saw through the Q2 period. Offshore investors continued to sell local debt though, with a further -¥871.1bn in outflows. This was down on the prior week, in terms of pace of outflows, but still marked the fifth straight week of outflows.

  • In terms of Japan outbound flows. Offshore purchases of both bonds and equities were negative last week, see the table below.
