Japan is one of the largest stock markets in the world, with more than 4000 companies listed. Despite being the home to hidden champions and niche leaders recognized globally, many are underfollowed. Close to half of the listed companies have zero coverage! This substack aims to help uncover some of these opportunities while giving color to the unique cultural context, that may have prevented investors from looking at this market in the past.
You’ll get highly differentiated ideas and insights into Japanese businesses —both investment ideas and profiles of unique companies/individuals/investors.
1. You’ll get initial ideas without having to spend on translation.
2. If and when possible I’ll share insights after talking to companies.
3. I occasionally provide on-the-ground research
4. most companies are not on people’s radar but I look far and wide and use my network of investors in Japan (i.e procure interesting ideas)
5. Sell-side who cover Japan have lived in Japan all their lives, they’re not able to put cultural differences into context. I think I can do that better. For foreign investors, putting the opportunity in context is key.
6. Be part of a community of like-minded investors who can share notes, insights and perspectives
7. Occasionally you’ll get recommendations of places to go in Japan ;)
