eToro, the global trading and investing platform, has expanded its stock offering by adding all equities listed on the Tokyo Stock Exchange (TSE) to its platform, alongside the launch of a new thematic investment portfolio called JapanEconomy.
The first tranche of stocks made available includes all constituents of the Nikkei 225 index, which are now live for trading.
Users will also have access to real-time market data to support their investment decisions.
The newly launched JapanEconomy portfolio comprises 30 TSE-listed stocks, selected on the basis of market capitalisation, liquidity, and analyst consensus to ensure broad diversification. Approximately half of the portfolio is weighted towards industrials and technology, with the remainder covering the consumer, communications, and financial sectors.
According to eToro’s Retail Investor Beat — a quarterly survey of 11,000 retail investors across 13 countries — the proportion of retail investors expecting Japanese equities to deliver the strongest returns over a five-year-plus horizon has nearly tripled, rising from 5% to 14% over the past two years.
eToro’s platform now provides access to more than 11,000 common stocks across 26 exchanges globally.
eToro VP of execution services Yossi Brandes said: “The launch of Japanese stocks is another major step in making eToro a truly global investing platform. We now offer access to more than 11,000 common stocks across 26 exchanges worldwide, reinforcing our position as a leading global broker-dealer with one of the most comprehensive stock offerings available to retail investors.
“With full access to the Nikkei 225, our users can trade some of Japan’s most iconic and liquid companies, including Toyota and Mitsubishi. Japan is the world’s third-largest equity market, and this expansion gives our users even more opportunities to diversify globally and capture growth across regions and sectors.”
eToro global market strategist Lale Akoner said: “Japan is re-emerging as a structural equity story, as reforms and policy normalisation reset the market’s long-term return profile. Japanese companies are delivering better earnings visibility, while governance reforms continue to enhance shareholder returns. As global investors seek diversification, especially away from the US, Japan stands out as a market combining depth, liquidity, and structural reform momentum. Giving retail investors access to the Nikkei 225 allows them to participate in one of the most compelling market transformations underway.”
