Summary

The strategy‘s portfolio includes many of the stocks representative of the Japanese market, but the "old technology" of price-weighted indexes and its focus on the larger portion of the market reduce our conviction. However, low management fees compared with peers, along with its broad coverage of the Japanese stock market, should support a long-term advantage.
