In October 2024, Japan's stock markets have experienced a notable upswing, with the Nikkei 225 Index and TOPIX Index both showing significant gains. This positive momentum is partly fueled by China's recent stimulus measures, which have bolstered confidence in Japanese companies with strong export ties to China. In such an environment, growth companies with high insider ownership can be particularly appealing as they often indicate management's confidence in the company's future prospects and alignment of interests with shareholders.
