Now's the Time to Invest in Japan's Defense Spending Boom
For decades, Japan's military spending was tame compared to other developed nations with comparably sized economies. But in recent years, the Land of the Rising Sun kicked defense spending into high gear.
OPPJ: The Cherry Blossom Before The Storm
WisdomTree Japan Opportunities Fund ETF has outperformed major US indices in 2024 but faces notable macro headwinds. OPPJ's portfolio is concentrated in industrials and globally diversified Japanese trading firms, with over 75% unhedged yen exposure. Rising Japanese rates and potential economic slowdown may pressure OPPJ's holdings, despite recent strong performance.
This ETF May Benefit From a BOJ Rate Hike
Yields on 10-year Japan government bonds touched a 30-year high last month. Now market participants are pondering the effects of those higher yields on stocks in the Land of the Rising Sun.
