JF3 -- ten years after the peak of the Japan market it is still down 50% -- get a grip -- there is no script. If a trillion dollars, or two trillion or three trillion, is wiped out in leveraged bets on profits that just went poof and just don't exist anymore, it is a new game.

Right JF3, they will buy back in again.

CNBC quoted somebody from a mjor broker saying that in 2000, they estimate $30 billion per month in vested stock options will be sold into floats, v. 20 billion/mo in 1999.

But what will they do with all that $$? Probably either invest in stocks, or invest in private placement start-ups.
