Can Softbank handle buying DoCoMo and Microsoft? Probably not in the same year <G>. The potential problem with the Japanese economy possibly stagnating can create some pretty scary scenarios. Depending on the timing, it is possible that many Japanese individuals will overcome the trauma of their previous forays into the equities market and begin to enter the retail stock market again. This could prop up many stocks and perhaps begin to create a "wealth effect" similar to the situation in the US. The stocks to focus on are probably name brand stocks that seem to be in a hot sector. Softbank has to the the number one choice here. Regardless of the PEs or multiples or whatever, Softbank could well be the beneficiary of a stock market boom like the one here in the US. Softbank has a pretty good chance of doing well no matter what the general economy is doing.

I do like the idea of diversifying and my other major positions are in oil and gas (if you can believe that <G>). Not only that, but oil and gas in litigation. Particularly Coastal Caribbean Oil & Minerals, Ltd. (CCO) traded on the Boston Stock Exchange. I am the primary poster at the SI CCO Board and it looks like an interesting play in oil and litigation. This stock moves totally independent of the general market so I view it as an ideal diversification.
