Y2K is a big hit. However, do we must put more concern in Japan only? Countries weight IT heavier and invest in IT heavier, like US, Singapore, must put more effort. Japan's products are more in consumer electronics. Their equipment might be supplied by US. If US has solution for equipment, Japan industry is more to consumers. Then, why must Japan has bigger hit on Y2K? I believe Y2K is equally bad for the whole world.

Did you notice that from March to April this year, Nikkei jumped up 14% in one month?

Stephen, Nikkei has passed the 18K struggle line. Most people look at 19.2K as next barrier line. Hope you are more positive with Nikkei now. Most likely, it will not go below 18K at Christmas time, even Dollar/Yen might be below 105. To me, I do not like to see Dollar/Yen below 105 this year and below 100 at the end of 2000.
