USDJPY goes down - Japanese stocks go up The annual inflation rate in Japan rose to 3.5% in April 2023. From 2015 it was near 0-1%. Companies have a lot of cash, do huge buybacks.
EWJ just double topped, country is in a recession FFS. Grabbed some March puts.
Last year the Euro markets hit all time highs (ATH) during a recession, not it's Japan's turn, lol. Recession: www.nytimes.com The amount of disconnect between the stock market and reality is truly amazing. It just goes to show it's all about money supply and not fundamentals. Difficult to short anything right now.
Although EWJ is not the most popular fund among retail traders, the creation of a neutral position on it at around 800,000$ suggests greater interest on the part of professional market participants, and thus we can expect fairly predictable moves at support/resistance borders.
Price is making lower lows and lower highs (trend lower) and should probably head down to the 60-58 area ! Just be patient and let the market do its job!
No reason for Japan to break out to new ATH when the rest of the world isn't. All pumped up because their PM resigned, doesn't fix any real issues. Overbought on daily

Multi decade channel with iron resistance level seems to have broken. Retest underway for months.What will happen next?
Asia looked weak yesterday and they've been alternating up and down days... So shorting Japan with next week's puts. Just 15 contracts for kicks and giggles.
Check back in a couple of years.. . . . I'd normally keep an idea like this private, this is more for me than you.
We are retesting now a 25-year-old resistance level and it's a big opportunity to ride the next Japanese economy cycle. I don't want to get into the macro-economy details, I am only focused on unbiased TA and for me, this can be a good buy opportunity if the resistance becomes a support, at least the RR looks awesome. About the ETF, this IShares is the largest one...
Put in a limit order for 69 for tomorrow RTH. Target 73. Idea generated by an algo, which has 75% win rate on average for this stock.
Japanese market being forgotten for decades is now sitting at all-time highs with rising 200DMA. It's building a small consolidation above the old highs. A possible long entry for the long term, potentially for years, unless the breakout collapses.
