Foreign investors net sell ¥67.5B of Japanese stocks in week to Oct 23

Two straight weeks of foreign net selling, and the fact that the second week's outflow was slightly larger than the first, suggests the retreat is steadying rather than fading. That matters because foreign flows have long been a marginal driver of Japanese equity demand, and a persistent reversal can weigh on sentiment even when domestic buyers step in. What's worth watching is whether this becomes a longer streak or just a pause in positioning.
