I agree with all that you have written but the Japanese government is really in a bind..I dont know of how much of our paper they own..also I have read that foreigners are not overinvested in our equities and many are afraid to for fear of dollar collapse..except of course for BOE :-) I wonder if they might buy our bonds if there is further dumping of our bonds and escalation of the yen.. Did you read Armstrong's latest articles? pei-intl.com and about the rule changes? I still just see more deflationary trends or inflationary ones.. wonder if that will just create a trend for money to move into more domestic based companies versus the big blue chips? A recession will cause a new wave of layoffs besides all the global mergers which kill jobs.. I think Greenspan is really getting boxed in by the market-this might present a great opportunity for bonds again down the road..
