Japan investors sold a net 2.72 trillion yen ($16.98 billion) in foreign stocks during May. This represents the largest monthly divestment from overseas equity markets since April 2021. The exit signals a pivot toward fixed income as Middle East tensions and high tech valuations curb risk appetite.
