Human Holdings provides staffing, vocational schools, nursing care and Japanese-language education in Japan. The shares look cheap and Japan's labour shortage supports demand for staffing and training. The business is labour-intensive with thin margins, and commentary linking it to tighter permanent-residency rules is speculative rather than evidence of earnings growth.

Calmer than 81% of stocks we rank over the past year (26% a year).
How this is worked out
What it measures: day-to-day price moves over the past year, as a yearly figure, ranked against every stock we cover. Very calm under 20% a year, Calm 20 to 30%, Average 30 to 40%, Bumpy 40 to 55%, Very bumpy above that.
What we found: across about 13,500 stocks in 34 markets (2002 to 2025), past swings were a good guide to the next year's, and bumpier stocks fell further. How much further changed too much between eras to put a number on it.
Calm is not safe: a calm stock can still slide steadily.
