Outflows To Offshore Bonds Continues, Offshore Investors Return To Local Stocks

JAPAN DATA

Foreign purchases of Japan equities returned last week, albeit with a modest ¥195bn in net inflows. This follows the prior week's outflow, which was the first since the end of March. Offshore investors also purchased Japan bonds last week, +¥484.7bn, but this only partially reverses outflows from the prior two weeks.

  • In terms of Japan outbound flows, we saw a decent pick up in buying of offshore bonds,
    +¥1252.7bn. This marks the 8th straight week of outflows into offshore bonds.
  • Outflows to offshore stocks more than reversed the previous week's gains, see the table below.
