Bob, With foerign banks chomping at the bit of deregulation, more deals like the ones the Koreans worked out will come to pass. It is more economical to take over a large bank with name recognition and absorb 6.5 Bln in losses than it is to build a banking business from scratch. Blue Sky is Blue Sky and you have to pay for it one way or another. If exchange rates stay over 130Y/$ then I think we have seen bottom of Nikkei. No chance gvt will change the current anemic passbook interest rates of 0.75%. Extra money will have to go somewhere. Yes, most will probally end up in US Treasuries, but as the rates fall below 6% then one has to factor in currency exchange risks. Keep in mind through all of this opinion based commentary that a recent TV news program poled women walking in Tokyo (as a rule, the women control finances in this country) and no one was willing to put money in the stock market. Will be an interesting year.
