I too am confused by this impressive number - $600 billion. If you annualize the April inflow of $28B thats only $336B.

Some other points of confusion for my overly dense grey matter:

How is it that this "world's largest debtor nation" is also the largest fund source of the IMF ? Where's all that cash going to come from ? (guarding my wallet).

If the Japanese people have socked away so dang much moola in their Postal Savings, why are their non-transparent banks in such dire straits ? Haven't these figured out how to get between their people and their money ?

If $600B is already inflowing from Japan yearly, why would the Big Bang which Zeev estimated might yield a cash inflow to US securities of an additional $60B/year have such a big effect on US stock market ?

Worswick, Mike, Zeev ?

Please forgive if I appear confused, I sacrificed what little brainpower I have to computers and semiconductors years ago and had no bandwidth for these larger economic issues.
