The company recently carried out a survey on market participants regarding the market outlook for April and beyond.

The results of the aggregated responses showed that many participants expected the Nikkei Average to see falling stock prices and experience a downward shift, in comparison to the previous survey.

Regarding the reason behind this movement in stock prices, more people highlighted "currency movements," while those who pointed to "overseas stock and bond prices" declined. For the current stock weight, more asset managers responded "neutral" against the standard stock allocation. With regards to the current position on stock allocation, those who said they would "marginally fall" increased, while those who responded that they would "marginally increase" fell.

In terms of the general economic outlook, the response of 80 percent of participants was that currently the economy is "stagnant." In response to the question of what the most effective near term economic measure that should be taken is, 33 per cent responded "expanding government spending"; next came "income tax reduction" and "postponement of the income tax hike," which both received a 25 percent share of responses.

At QUICK, we report on the predictions and opinions of Japanese market participants for the investors in Asia. We will continue to do so going forward and we hope you find our research useful in determining the investment weights for Japanese stocks in your portfolio.

We also conduct research on bonds and FX markets. The reports and aggregate survey data are available through terminal services provided by QUICK, or on QUICK FactSet Workstation.
