Quantitative Analysis

<div>
When Japanese small-cap stocks listed on JASDAQ, MOTHERS, and the Second Section of the Tokyo Stock Exchange aim at the big leagues and apply for reassignment to the First Section of the Tokyo Stock Exchange and are accepted, it causes significant events to occur.
This triggers inclusion into the TOPIX Index which means passive funds tracking TOPIX need to buy on an inclusion event. This opens up several interesting trading opportunities for investors. 
In this insight, I have provided performance updates for 3 "Live" event stocks which have announced their TSE1 move in  October 2020 and 5 "Post" event stocks that completed their Inclusion Events today and some Pre-event trades involving stocks that are likely to become TSE1-promotion candidates in the near future.

In late July 2020, the Tokyo Stock Exchange issued Revisions to Listing Rules to Enhance Functions for Raising Funds through the Capital Market. These were discussed by <a href="https://www.smartkarma.com/profiles/travis-lundy" target="_blank" data-smartkarma-citation="accounts:25" rel="noopener">Travis Lundy</a> in <a href="https://www.smartkarma.com/insights/the-tse-s-listing-criteria-revisions-part-i" target="_blank" data-smartkarma-citation="insights:43150" rel="noopener">The TSE's Listing Criteria Revisions - Part I</a>.These revisions have very important implications to Pre-event trades in the TOPIX Inclusions Universe as fewer candidates will be able to meet these more-stringent new requirements. In this insight, we take a look at how these new requirements will influence our Pre-event trades. In addition, I have also provided performance updates for 5 "Live" events which have announced their TSE1 move in September 2020 and 6 "Post" events that involves stocks which have already had their Inclusion events in August 2020. As noted last month, unusually there were no inclusions for September due to section/segment reassignment.As always, there is more below the fold.
