RE: back in fat city. Edwin, you're surely right about Nasdaq Japan.
Here in Canada the banks lend on residential mortgages, credit cards, large corporations, and that's about it. It's like Japan; banks don't venture. Canada has 11% of the population of the US and less than 1% of the new tech companies. Japan also has a low per capita development of new tech companies, for the same reason, nobody wants to finance them. Jasdaq is the solution. Who benefits most? Those who are incubating the new companies. According to what I read in Japan, Softbank will sooner or later divest most of its DIRECT financial interest in Nasdaq Japan. The INDIRECT advantage, i.e. the provision of a respected and gigantic market place wherein the public plays the role of the venture capitalist, this indirect advantage is enormous.
