The Topix and Nikkei 225 both hit 33-year highs and are up more than 20% so far in 2023, outperforming most equity benchmarks elsewhere in Asia. As the yen weakened against all major currencies, indicators tracking Japanese automakers and electronics companies surged at least 33%. There are signs that the Bank of Japan (BoJ) is in no rush to change its ultra-loose monetary policy.

Even if the yen rebounds since early November, Japanese stocks are likely to remain solid as the yen remains relatively cheap and corporate earnings are less susceptible to foreign exchange fluctuations. Overseas investors have also cheered Japan's push to increase corporate shareholder value.
