Book excerpt: Despite its prominence in world finance, Japan's stock market has remained an enigma to many investors. This book aims to remove the mystery, revealing how Japanese corporations have moulded the market into a cheap source of capital; why most shares of corporations are held by other corporations; what the Keiretsu - secretive stockbroking, insurance and banking cartels - really do; and how the market's 1990 collapse affected these interlocking relationships.

This book was released on 2003-07-01 with total page 24 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Using the ARFIMA-FIGARCH model, this paper studies the efficiency of the Japanese equity market by examining the statistical properties of the return and volatility of the Nikkei 225. It shows that both follow a long range dependence, which stands against the efficient market hypothesis (EMH). The result is valid for all sample periods, suggesting that the recent equity market reform has not produced major efficiency gains.

This section of the book also discusses cross-border money flows, monetary policy and the regulatory framework.

Download or read book Investing in Japan written by Steven Towns and published by CreateSpace. This book was released on 2012-03-14 with total page 210 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Investing in Japan contains indispensable information about one of the world's largest and at the same time, most undervalued, stock markets. Long disregarded by investors, Japanese equities and their attractive valuations (supported by low/no debt, strong cash positions, marketable securities and real assets, sustained profitability, etc.) allow value investors to opportunistically deploy any number of strategies. Investing in Japan is the definitive information source about Japanese stocks and investment funds: timely in its publishing (March 2012) ahead of the historic "Abenomics" rally and timeless with its detailed must-know fundamental market information and idiosyncrasies. Fluent in Japanese, Steven Towns provides 140 footnotes from English and Japanese sources. Readers will gain an asymmetrical information advantage, learning the inner-workings of the market and key information sources unknown to most non-Japanese investors. Investing in Japan includes a brief overview of value investing to whet the appetite of those new to value and be readily digestible for practitioners --- provoking thought about ZIRP's (zero interest rate policy) impact on cost and returns of capital, and similarly how focusing on beta (volatility measure) would prevent alpha opportunities such as following the sharp March 11, 2011, earthquake/tsunami selloff. Investing in Japan challenges the conventional wisdom of Japan being on its last leg (a kind way of putting it compared to some pundits); provides a comprehensive overview of investing in Japan including various must-know idiosyncrasies; the shortcomings of Japan-focused mutual funds and ETFs, which could save current/potential investors significant time and money; the odd marketing of funds to Japanese investors; everything one needs to know about ADRs; review of select value hedge and mutual funds investing in Japan and value-focused Japanese funds; valuation metrics and comparison to other markets; hedge funds' investments in Japan; clarifying the matter of low returns on equity; and sharing some surprisingly (positive) information on the strength of shareholder rights and corporate governance in Japan.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This timely volume brings together professors of finance and accounting from Japanese universities to examine the Japanese stock market in terms of its pricing and accounting systems. The papers report the results of empirical research into the Japanese stock market within the framework of new theories of finance. Academics, professionals, and anyone seeking to understand or enter the Japanese market will applaud the publication of this practical, informative volume. Having gathered data from the late 1970's through 1984, the authors analyze the market's behavior and the applicability of two major theoretical pricing models -- the Capital Asset Pricing Models and the Efficient Market Hypothesis -- to that market. Chapter 1 provides background statistical evidence on the behavior of monthly returns on Tokyo Stock Exchange common stocks. Chapter 2 discusses an empirical test of the capital asset pricing model. Chapter 3 examines evidence on the price performance of unseasoned new issues. The authors also examine the Japanese accounting disclosure system: Chapter 4 deals empirically with the information content of the annual accounting announcements and related market efficiency. The next chapter presents empirical evidence on the relationship between unsystematic returns and earnings forecast errors. Next, empirical research into the usefulness to investors of the disclosure system is examined. Finally, Chapter 7 presents several interesting questions and topics for future research on the Japanese stock market.

This book was released on 2008-04-15 with total page 428 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This timely volume addresses three important recent trends in the internationalization of United States equity markets: extensive market integration through foreign investment and links among stock prices around the world; increasing securitization as countries such as Japan come to rely more than ever before on markets in equities and bonds at the expense of banks; and the opening of national financial systems of newly industrializing countries to international financial flows and institutions, as governments remove capital controls and other barriers. Eight essays examine such issues as the current extent of international market integration, gains to U.S. investors through international diversification, home-country bias in investing, the role of time and location around the world in stock trading, and the behavior of country funds. Other, long-standing questions about equity markets are also addressed, including market efficiency and the accuracy of models of expected returns, with a particular focus on variances, covariances, and the price of risk according to the Capital Asset Pricing Model.
Download or read book Idiosyncratic Risk and the Creative Destruction of Japan written by Yasushi Hamao and published by . This book was released on 2003 with total page 72 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The dramatic rise and fall of the Japanese equity market provides a unique opportunity to examine market-and firm-specific risks over different market conditions. The price behavior of Japanese equities in the 1990s is found to resemble that of U.S. equities during the Great Depression. Both show increasing market volatility and a prolonged large co-movement in equity prices. What is unique about the Japanese case is the surprising fall in firm-level volatility and turnover in Japanese stocks after its market crash in 1990. This large decrease in firm-level volatility may have impeded Japan's capital formation process as it has become more difficult over the past decade for both investors and managers to separate high quality from low quality firms. Using data on firm performance fundamentals and corporate bankruptcies, we show that the fall in firm-level volatility and turnover in Japanese stocks could be attributed to the sharp increase in earnings homogeneity among Japanese firms and the lack of corporate restructuring.
