I am almost out of the Japanese market at this time. Years ago, in the late 60's, I invested in a small motorcycle company, Honda and Toyota and Matsushita. Honda did not make cars at that point, but as a mechanical engineer, I was convinced that they would succeed at becoming a major automaker. For a variety of personal reasons I was pretty much out of the Japanese market at the time of the "crash" but I think that this is a good time to get back in to the Japanese market. I like Softbank, especially if they can manage to get listed in the US pretty quickly. Son appears to be poised to be the big fish in Japanese Internet, and I think that the high valuation for Softbank is puzzling to the Japanese analysts so they are afraid of the stock. Validation of Softbank by American investors could ignite an explosion in Japanese interest that could surpass the American fascination with Internet stocks.
