Lower tariffs can lead to increased exports from Japan, positively affecting EWJ. Historical examples show that tariff reductions, such as in the U.S.-Mexico-Canada Agreement, tended to improve stock performance in affected industries.
Tariff changes directly influence the competitiveness of Japanese exports. This shift may result in increased investor interest in EWJ as Japanese companies may become more profitable, reflecting well on their stock performance.
The tariff reduction will likely impact market sentiment quickly, affecting stock prices shortly after implementation. Similar events in the past have shown immediate market reactions within weeks of tariff changes.
