China dethroned by Japan as world's second-biggest stock market - Bloomberg

According to data compiled by Bloomberg, Japan outpaced China as the world’s second-biggest stock market.

Key Highlights:

“After a Thursday slump, Chinese equities were worth $6.09 trillion. That compares with $6.17 trillion in Japan. 

The U.S. has the world’s largest stock market at just over $31 trillion.       

China’s stock market overtook Japan’s in late 2014, then soared to an all-time high of more than $10 trillion in June 2015.

The market value calculations include primary listings only, to avoid double-counting. Hong Kong’s equities are valued at $5.1 trillion.”
