RE:"Japanese news don't look good. The tax cut of 0.10% backfired and Nikkei dropped to all times low. I believe they can't ease anymore, as there is no more room to ease, since their interest rates now is 0.15%!! " The Japanese never cleaned up their Real Estate mess like we did with the RTC. To much honor I guess...so they have been in a recession for 10 years. I suppose they could pay people to borrow money. Jim

Yaacov - Re: 'Japanese news don't look good. The tax cut of 0.10% backfired and Nikkei dropped to all times low. I believe they can't ease anymore, as there is no more room to ease, since their interest rates now is 0.15%!! " Maybe the Japanese Banks should take on US and European clients - and let them spend those YEN - the Japanese clearly don't know what to do with that money. I'm pleased to hear that Europe is doing so well. Now - one of two things can happen - Europe can help PULL UP the US - or the US can PULL DOWN Europe. I guess that's a 50-50 chance of improvement.
