Foreign investment in Japanese stocks has fallen sharply, with the latest reading dropping to 402.0B from a previous level of 1,424.2B, according to data updated on 26 February 2026. The figures point to a marked cooling in overseas appetite for Japanese equities after a period of much stronger inflows.

The decline suggests that foreign investors, who have been a key driver of recent rallies in Japan’s stock market, are becoming more cautious. While the data alone does not reveal the underlying causes, the scale of the pullback indicates a notable shift in positioning, with potential implications for market liquidity and valuation support going forward.

Market participants will be watching subsequent data releases closely to see whether this is a temporary adjustment or the start of a sustained moderation in foreign participation in Japan’s equity market.
