SYGJP up less than 1% while the Nikkei's been on a tear lately - reckon the rand weakness is masking what should be a sharper move given Japan's momentum. The carry trade unwind risk is real, but at these valuations the downside looks overdone if you're thinking medium term.
SYGJP up 2.53% to R25.96, likely riding the JPY weakness tailwind that's been helping Japanese exporters. At this price point the fund's expense ratio starts to matter more for long-term returns, so worth checking if you're holding this for income or growth.
SYGJP down 1.57% to R24.48, likely catching some fallout from weakness in the yen, but Japan's valuations still look reasonable on a longer timeframe if you believe in the structural recovery story.
SYGJP up 1.54% today to R25.12, which is decent relative to the broader ETF sector's tepid performance. Direct comparison: it's tracking Japan's equity momentum better than most local Japan-focused funds, though you're still exposed to yen weakness if the rand decides to rally.
