MarketWatch05:23 ET

Berkshire's return to the yen bond market has sparked speculation that Buffett may increase investments in Japan stocks.

According to market observers, as Berkshire Hathaway re-enters the Japanese bonds market, there is speculation that Buffett is raising funds to purchase value stocks and may consider acquiring shares of Japanese financial and shipping companies. The billionaire's company this week commissioned banks to manage a Japanese yen bond issuance in the global market, indicating he may increase his investments in Japan. In his annual letter in February this year, Buffett mentioned that his previous investments in Japanese stocks were mostly funded through Japanese yen bonds.
