Monetary easing and market-friendly reforms kindled Japan ETFs this year. But one wealth manager is sitting out Japan exchange traded funds’ top-notch performance in 2015.

Stimulus measures continue to support Japanese stocks, he said. But they can also drive down the yen, so Blumenthal advised investors to “hedge the currency risk.”
