Outstanding companies with market caps exceeding $45 billion, with strong presence in international markets and unusually strong industrial conglomerates (Sogo Soshas)
From the smallest at $45 billion - advanced optics manufacturer Hoya
The theme is complemented by the Large Cap Listings on U.S. Markets -$10 bn to $45 bn and by a focus on Japan's unique Sōgō shōsha investment conglomerates
The extensive list of Japanese companies accessible on U.S. exchanges or traded on OTC provides background
Loosely traded on OTC markets, the shares performance will usually reflect the trend but not the actual performance on their home market, adjusted for currency shifts - their track record on OTC is strictly informative and might justify further research
With low trading volume on U.S. OTC markets for the listed shares, performance, volatility and drawdown calculations will be affected - these ratios do not reflect true performance, volatility and drawdown as these same shares are normally traded on their national exchange
Our platform of asset information will include fundamental data information for companies listed on NYSE, but accounting data for the OTC (over-the-counter) quoted firms is not avaiable
To highlight momentum and check trends, selected a short time frame - from two weeks to six months - on the menu (top right)
