QUOTE(Pink Spider @ May 22 2013, 11:54 PM) Easing, Yen weakening, Japanese goods will become more competitive, pricing-wise. Think i will try small haha. 10k should be a safe bet?But how much will that translate into actual growth and profitability? We have no numbers, yet. It's a gamble that u have to decide whether to take or not. |

QUOTE(TakoC @ May 23 2013, 12:14 AM) Idunnolol, lets discuss. Japan economy is stagnant at the moment hence the central bank is definitely doing something about it. I dont think they will go into recession or at least not full blown. IMO,a collapsed japan is not a good thing . One point for my optimism is here So if you are planning to hold for long terms (ETA 5 years), then by all means buy now. it's a gamble. Unless Japan go into recession lar. which I doubt http://theweek.com/article/index/244486/ha...onomic-problems The reason is that Japan will have no choice. The fiscal and monetary expansion started in the first few months of Abenomics has been so extreme that there is no turning back. Unless Japan can achieve much faster economic growth, Abe's radical experiment with macroeconomic stimulus will create a debt and monetary overhang so huge that it will bankrupt the financial system and possibly trigger hyper-inflation. So its either do or die for them |

QUOTE(yklooi @ May 23 2013, 12:29 AM) "Abe's policy cocktail is insufficient because Japan's growth challenge is structural at root, resulting from demographic change and a misallocation of investment. The ageing and shrinking of Japan’s population is a huge brake on growth. So is the country's wealth: Japanese manufacturers' outsourcing to lower-cost east Asian countries will and should go on despite a more favorable exchange rate. [Financial Times]" current plan does help Abe win a majority in the upper house of Japan's parliament, the Diet, he'll have newfound power to steamroll opposition and push through at least some of the structural reforms — such as greater international competition, higher female labor participation, employment deregulation, lower energy prices, and corporate taxation — needed to push the Japanese economy to the next level. Too much fighting among political party,nobody want to get job done. Something like BN/PR |
