Connection thesis
Japan's arms export liberalization (April 2026 rule change) creates a dual-use industrial policy signal: defensive against China, but also enables high-margin defence exports to Ukraine and allied nations. This simultaneously constrains yen weakness (security premium) and creates equity upside for Japanese defence contractors. The two articles together form a single policy story being parsed as 'security pivot' rather than 'export opportunity'—sell-side will lag to the opportunity thesis.
