新興市場見通し:選挙の結果次第では買戻し優勢か、物色対象が低位株から主力株に変化するかに注目

Emerging markets outlook: Depending on the election results, it is worth paying attention to whether buybacks will dominate or whether the focus will shift from low-priced stocks to leading stocks.

Will the focus shift to main stock?

This week, the emerging markets declined. While the Nikkei Average fell by 2.74% during the same period, the Growth Market Index and the Growth Market 250 Index both declined by 5.50% and 5.47% respectively. The weakness in the growth market was prominent, affected by concerns about the House of Representatives general election and the current market conditions. There was restrained buying activity compared to the main board market, with trading volume falling below 100 billion yen for 10 consecutive business days. The trading volume on the 25th was 0.27 billion shares, the highest since August 19th, mainly due to active trading of low-priced stocks around 100 yen. Main stocks with large market capitalization generally experienced a weak market development, leading the Growth Market 250 Index to break below 600 points for the first time since August 15th.

Among the top market capitalization stocks, Time <215A> hit a new all-time low after listing, while TKP <3479>, which had been sold off after its earnings report, hit a new low for the year. GENDA <9166> saw a drop of over 20% from its all-time high of 2961 yen on October 2nd. Low-priced stocks such as Yumetenbo <3185>, Fruit-a-Fruit-a <2586>, Modalis <4883>, Jelly Beans Group <3070> trading below 100 yen attracted investment funds. The opening price of Shinwa Holdings <7118>, listed on the Tokyo Stock Exchange Ambitious on the 21st, was 1530 yen, 7.3% below the offering price. On the other hand, Schoo <264A>, listed on the Growth Market on the 22nd, had an opening price of 761 yen, 10.3% above the offering price. The opening price of this year's largest IPO on the 23rd on the main board, Tokyo Metro <9023>, was 1630 yen, 35.8% higher than the offering price, while the opening price of LIGAC Holdings <268A>, listed on the main board on the 25th, was 1205 yen, 4.4% below the offering price.

Expectations are high for IPOs that the market is interested in

Next week in the emerging markets, there could be a further decline depending on the results of the House of Representatives election on October 27th. If the ruling parties, the Liberal Democratic Party and Komeito, fall below a majority, similar to the main board market, selling pressure is likely to strengthen. On the other hand, if the ruling parties maintain a majority and concerns about the government recede, leading to buying opportunities, the focus of investment may shift from low-priced stocks to main stocks. However, due to weak investor sentiment and lack of significant policy changes, even if there is a shift towards buying opportunities, it is expected to be lower than the main board market. Keep an eye on trading activities exceeding 100 billion yen in focused stock picking on main stocks such as GENDA and Integral <5842>.

Next week, Hmcomm <265A>, specializing in speech recognition processing on the 28th, and Sapeet <269A>, which handles AI products utilizing Expert AI on the 29th, will be listed on the Growth Market. As both stocks garner high market interest, it is expected that there will be steady initial pricing and active secondary investments. If both stocks perform well, attention may shift to companies like Advanced Media <3773> involved in speech recognition, AI-related companies like AI Inside <4488>, Laboro.AI <5586>, Headwaters <4011>, and recent IPO Ai Robotics <247A>.
