Osaka Exchange Started as Japan's first comprehensive exchange 12:42 July 27, handling various futures

Osaka Exchange, which has been handling futures such as Nikkei 225, has moved from Tokyo on 27th to move as a “comprehensive exchange” that handles a variety of futures such as gold and corn.

The Osaka Exchange, which is under the control of the Japan Exchange Group, transferred most of the precious metals such as gold and silver and futures such as corn and rubber from the Tokyo Commodity Exchange, and started trading at 8:45 am as a general exchange. ..

Gold futures prices have been newly displayed on the Osaka Exchange board, and the one in June next year, which is the center of the transaction, temporarily reached the highest price.

This is because the spread of the new coronavirus infection has increased, and the movement to buy gold, which is a safe asset, has intensified.

By moving most of the futures to the Osaka Exchange, investors will be able to easily buy and sell various futures with one account.

Such "comprehensive exchanges" are already mainstream in Europe and the United States, and have become the driving force for attracting huge amounts of investment funds.

With the birth of the first "comprehensive exchange" in Japan, attention will be paid to the extent to which the scale of transactions can be expanded.
