Japan used to rule the roost over there, but has been so severely weakened economically, they are losing influence to the growing economies

hi Ron,

I guess that is the result from a bubble economy getting too big too quickly. I've read the Nikki chart and only to find out it was nothing more than people had speculated too much on the future technology they were creating. As a result of that, pump-n-dump occured. People during the booming time in Japan were so opportunistic and banks lending more and more by creating more credits to the soon-to-be failing businesses. By the time the boom was over, so many people had committed suicide. Actually, this had happened repeatedly in the history of economy. Sometimes, I have to agree with some socialist scholars that when one economy is growing too fast too quickly, its population is also growing along the way, and all sorts of dangerous bubbles could set to burst at anytime, which could create chaos as a result of too much speculation.

regards,
