Marty Whitmann -

Marty Whitman has bought some of these Japanese companies with considerations similar to yours. He may not have made money on them, but perhaps he lost less than US stock market.

No he did not. I follow his picks and read his shareholder letters. His performance was worse than the SP500. He does have some good ideas but i think what did him in was his bias towards real estate. He also dabbled with the mortgage insurers (MBIA).
