JAP year end in 10 days, so all this puffing up of overvalued junk should end soon.

I moved a good chuck of my pension into a Japan index fund a few weeks back. Looking good so far.

Myron Scholes Global Markets Forum: The Coming Crisis in Japan - Kyle Bass

"If JGB market implodes [manily due to demographics amongst other unique reasons] yeilds could see 15% and USDJPY at 250+"

#22 NKY spiked down 580 points in 6 hours from 11665, but has since turned back up, with next res levels a couple % above at 12550 and 650, as similarly spaced as USDJPY levels

I have a golden rule that if I dont understand something, I dont trade it.

I broke that rule on the JGB, shorting it, and consequently am being pasted.

I know the BoJ are defending them like crazy, and if they fall substantialy, many Japanese banks will be in trouble, but can they carry on bucking the inevitable ?

Of course the BoJ and Jap banks have a tad more capital than me, but this is crazy, given whats happened to other major sovereign bonds.

patience or stop out, whatever comes first.

they say the biggest up bars are in downtrends, and the monthly USDJPY bars must be pretty big the last few months :O
i guess next UJ res is 98¼, 99¾ and 101½ for now? probably worth looking at fibs off the multi-year down cycle, EJ res at 127.9, 129.5 and 132.1 and NKY res at 11570, 660 and 725, all +/- 0.1% or so

JGB cracking at last imo.

Are there any japan focussed residential property companies which have fixed their exchange rates and are quoted in the UK that any one knows of ?...thanks in advance

Elon Musks SpaceX has been to the ISS a couple times now, i think whenever the 'real' bear market that topped in 2000 bottoms out (few more yrs? 5yrs? 10yrs? depends if they continue copying the jap blueprint?) it'll be something space related or biotech related that really pushes things fwd; nanorobotic surgery and using 3D printers to engineer replacement organs is amazing, and thats just what we can do today :)

What about the Yen,bound to tumble right! Seen the end of the rising yen Im thinking. All the debt atching up with them like the Europeans. They are for the high jump no doubt about that.
