TOPIX October 2022 Rebal – BIG Names with BIG Flows
- The TSE announced its first large FFW rebalance under new rules and Market Segmentation. ~1,000 names see FFW drop 5% or more. 100+ rise 5+%. Reverse funding trades are significant.
- Top BUY flow: Toyota, Olympus, Daiichi Sankyo, Tokio Marine, JP Holdings with an average of 4.0 days’ ADV to buy. Softbank/9984, MitCorp, Hitachi, Suzuki, Marubeni average 4.8 days to SELL.
- 493 names start their phased weight reduction out of TOPIX because they do not meet the hurdle for minimum trading value. And… Shinsei is the most impressive SELL name.
