This paper studies the influence on the Japanese stock (cash and futures) markets of the Nikkei put warrants which were traded in Toronto and New York from February 1989 to April 1993. Implied changes in the Japanese prices based on the previous days’ North American warrant prices are compared to the actual price changes. Special attention is placed on the period from January 1990 to August 1992 when the Japanese stock market had a major decline.
