​Japanese SPE mfr Kokusai Electric (6525 JP) has received approval for a late October IPO, making it the largest IPO in Japan since pre-COVID, despite the current market cycle. Expect high demand.

I still like this IPO. I liked it when the IPO was "set" with an indicative price at ¥1890 on 21 Sep. Since then, TEL is -2.5%, Advantest is +5%, ASML is +3% in yen terms, AMAT +2%, but Kokusai Electric's IPO priced 2.6% lower, and allocations were tight. There is a fair bit to buy for TOPIX at end-November. Then more from index funds early next year. I expect it to perform well.
