Japanese retail traders are experiencing a notable surge in trading activity, largely attributed to the growing interest in artificial intelligence and off-exchange trading platforms.

Data reveals that the average daily trading volume on the Tokyo Stock Exchange's prime market has almost doubled within the last 12 months, reflecting heightened engagement from individual investors.
