We are now at more than 5% discount to NAV!!

Knowing:

If you're waiting for the Nik to go up to 17k I hope that you're not holding your breath.

I think that the Jap story is over for quite some time now, the Live Door scandal will roll on for the rest of the year and knowing how much potential there is in Japan for another corruption scandal I have a horrible feeling that a new one will start before the old one is put to bed.

I still hold a small amount of JPS but I cannot see any decent prospects for it in the near future - let's just hope that the summer might bring a bit of cheer to the Jap I.Ts.

Good luck to you anyway.

Hopefully higher to go on this one. Watch the Nikkei close and if positive then buy in IMO. Expect Nik to go upto 17K+

[nephin] 21/2/2006 22:09

I went back into JPS today, I looked at this one but I think that when the market turns it will be the small firms that get off the canvas first.

P.S.
As a point of interest if anybody has a couple of minutes to spare have a look at VOF

Nav 300 price 315, must be 24 hrs behind?

[knowing] 21/2/2006 08:12

Looks like time to be buying back in.

[nephin] 20/2/2006 19:57

red & markth

I held quite a few JPS and I got out @ 401p. I'm hoping to get back in soon but I'm worried about trying to catch a falling knife ect. Its all a bit confusing at the moment.

Japanese consumer spending has picked up and the charts are at last showing that retracement that was long overdue.
I really don't understand why investors start running to the door whenever the chart retraces - nothing goes up in a straight line.
I see it as a good buying opportunity even if the price should fall back a bit more.

[nephin] 20/2/2006 18:35

I have never seen IT shares go into a melt down like these Jap ones have, JPS is the worse one. It looks as though the Live Door scandal is going to pull the index down to 1450/1500. I'm glad that I'm out & safe.

[markth] 20/2/2006 13:09

I don't know RT. Have sold all my Jap. holdings in the last few days, stop-loss and all that.

[royalt] 20/2/2006 12:26

Trading at a few % discount now. Wonder how far its going to fall back. Shouldnt be too much to go before a pull up.

[markth] 19/2/2006 20:53

Discount has narrowed from 5% to 0% in the last couple of weeks. That's a lot in such a short time. It means that the share price has performed better than the NAV. So the underperformance against the index is even worse on this measure. But we are not wanting it to track the index; if we were we'd buy these iShare thingies, right (assuming there is one for Japan).

[arja] 19/2/2006 14:05

markth- both I think . But I think Nikkei225 chart still in medium term uptrend . Hopefully , the low point will be about 15000 where there is chart support ( unless the Dow crashes of course ).

[markth] 17/2/2006 10:55

Depends on whether you look at the NAV or the Share Price, arja.

[arja] 17/2/2006 09:44

but certainly in short term downtrend and I notice that this trust underperforms the Jappanese index! Does not say much for the management !

[megsta] 17/2/2006 08:55

long term NIKKEI chart shows hammer candlestick forming (similar to Oct 05), indicates a buy signal(?)

Is money moving out of Japan, and into the US now that the DJIA has broken 11000?
