What stands out in DXJ's data

Currency-hedged Japanese equities, removing yen swings from the return.

Has outpaced most Japan peers over three years — the yen hedge has captured more of the market's rise.

A 29% annualized three-year return leads the 20% category median. Its EBITDA margin of 18.9% sits below average, a trade-off for the return advantage.

Adds Japan exposure without the yen risk that typically comes with it.
