Abstract

In Chapter 1 we provide an overview of trading at the First and Second Sections of the Tokyo Stock Exchange. We discuss how investors can send bid-ask orders to the TSE and outline how these orders are executed. We also explained the arrowhead trading system, implemented January 2010; by reading our example of the market clearing process, readers should become familiar with TSE trading systems. Then we summarize relevant financial characteristics of the firms listed on both sections of the TSE.
