Trade (do not 'invest'), be prepared to be wrong, and change your mind accordingly."

USing melons to describe the japanese economy is a bit misleading: melons are expensive because they 'need to be' to satisfy the social role they play....
But your basic premise about high distribution costs is of course largely corect for many items, though some food items are not very different in price from the US and some are cheaper.
