Tokyo stock boom drives record trading volume in 1970
Tokyo stock exchange logs 42.7 billion shares traded in 1970 as Japan’s economy boomed. Despite high volume, dollar value was modest with 25.4 billion in Japanese listings versus 636 billion on New York’s exchange. Foreign and domestic buyers pushed prices to highs on key issues like Sony Hitachi Matsushita while foreign ownership cuts rose. The government plans further capital liberalization next September though details remain undecided.
