It's that time again and the Japan season is open.

As of today, due to the time change from winter to summer, you can trade Japanese stocks with a lower spread between 8 - 9 am.

My favorites:

$7011 (+0.66%) MHI Heavy Metal

YTD+61.09% KGV 12.55

$6361 (+0.39%) Ebara Services Energy, Environment

YTD +59.06% KGV 20.53

YTD 10.71% KGV 5.98

$8001 (-1.93%) Itochu Trading

YTD +7.60% KGV 12.82

My favorite Etf:

$XDJP (+0.54%) Nikkei 225

YTD 15.46% TER 0.09%

Semi-annual distribution Feb + August 1.33%

There are of course countless other shares, companies and ETFs. I myself have $7011 (+0.66%) and $XDJP (+0.54%) .

Good luck

You mean rather up to 8? :-)

Since Japan has no daylight saving time, for us German investors it means that the stock exchange is open from 2:00 to 4:30 and 5:30 to 8:00 in the summer. In winter, it is one hour earlier, from 1:00 to 3:30 and from 4:30 to 7:00.

For domestic investors, this means that the traditional stock exchanges have no overlap with the Japanese stock market. But there is a gap: The LS Exchange and also Lang & Schwarz in over-the-counter trading start trading as early as 7:30 am. This means that we have a 30-minute overlap with Japan from 7:30 to 8:00. During this time, the broker knows the reference rates in Tokyo and offers correspondingly lower spreads. You can see this here with an example:

@Dreamliner using the example of Ebara:

8:00-8:30: Price: 84.25€ Buy: 84.44€
Spread: 0.225%
8:30-9:00: Price: 84,25€ Buy: 85,00€
Spread: 0.89%
9:00-9:30: Price: 84,25€ Buy: 85,00€

My spread was usually between 1.5% and 2%. But you could be right that the spread is not lower until 9:00, but only until 8:30.

Unfortunately, I can no longer provide concrete evidence for MHI, as there was a stock split on April 1st.
