Good luck to you. Citi was trading around 10 and was thought to be on it's last legs when the prince bought in as I recall. Don't know if there were any splits between that time and now. Yeah, I remember at the top they were measuring prime Tokyo real estate by the 'square foot' and screaming about the fabulous prices! I think you are correct that they took less of a bath buying in America, but a bath it was. US auto industry a mess, but some interesting cracks in the Japanese armor. Have you read that Toyota has been getting hit with quality problems with the Camry and Lexus G model lately, and even more interesting, some of their well regarded top managers have left to move over to Ford and Cerberus (Jim Press, a well regarded Lexus marketing guy, and a third high level exec, can't recall their names). I'm no US auto fan, but must admit some of the GM cars are starting to look much better. Cadillac CTS (M/T car of the year), Chevy Malibu as a real competitor to Camry/Accord (finally), and of course the ever present Corvette. I nearly fell off my chair when I started to see brands like Buick beat out some of the Japanese majors in the initial quality ratings at outfits like JD Power... Best regards, John
