The
JPN225
index is currently offering a modest discount following a nearly 10% return to investors in February, raising the question of its investability. A key metric to watch is the Topix Bank Index
TOPIXB
, which gauges the health of the financial sector. Despite today's slight decline of 0.50% in the
JPN225
, Japanese banks continue to perform notably well. Inflation rates are anticipated to decrease from 2.6% to 2.1% tomorrow (Tuesday), and consumer confidence is expected to see a minor improvement from 38 to 38.2 by the end of the week (Friday).
Given the positive internal indicators and the limited number of significant events on the calendar for this week, my outlook remains optimistic. I am waiting for a further pullback in the
JPN225
to establish a level of support from which I can start to build on any additional declines.
