Kazuyuki Masu, a former CFO of Mitsubishi Corp, has been nominated by the Japanese government to join the Bank of Japan's policy board, replacing Toyoaki Nakamura. If approved, Masu will start his five-year term on July 1, as the board shifts towards a more hawkish stance amid rising interest rates and global trade tensions.
Mitsubishi Corp plans to invest at least 4 trillion yen ($27 billion) over the next three years to drive growth, targeting a net profit of 1.2 trillion yen by the 2027/28 financial year. The company will allocate around 1 trillion yen for sustaining capital expenditure and over 3 trillion yen for growth investments, while also maintaining a policy of progressive dividends and share buybacks, including a plan to repurchase up to 1 trillion yen of its shares by March 2026. Despite forecasting a drop in net profit to 700 billion yen for the current year, Mitsubishi will increase its dividend by 10 yen to 110 yen per share.
Recent trends indicate a significant shift among institutional investors from US equities to international markets, driven by attractive valuations and concerns over the US economy's future. With the S&P 500 generating 41% of its revenues from abroad, the appeal of ex-US markets, including Japan and Europe, is growing, as exemplified by Warren Buffett's increased investments in Japanese firms. Despite challenges, the US remains a dominant player in global capital markets, but must adapt to evolving geopolitical dynamics to maintain its position.
Ayala Corp. has sold 6.5% of GCash to Mitsubishi Corp. for approximately $321.5 million, equating to 18.4 billion pesos. Following this transaction, both Ayala and Mitsubishi will hold equal stakes of 50% in AC Ventures, which manages GCash through Mynt. Mitsubishi will also acquire 18 million shares of AC Ventures.
Warren Buffett's net worth surged by $21 billion this year, making him the top gainer among billionaires, as Berkshire Hathaway's shares rose 16% amid a broader market slump. The company, holding a record $325 billion in cash, has increased its stakes in five Japanese trading houses, signaling a strategic shift towards international investments despite ongoing economic uncertainties. Buffett remains committed to prioritizing equities over cash, emphasizing the value of good businesses.
